Chest furnace for industrial use
Heat treatment of large and heavy components
A chest furnace is the ideal solution if you want to reliably heat treat large, heavy, or long workpieces. It offers optimal conditions for precise and energy-efficient processes, especially in industrial applications. Thanks to its design, the furnace can be conveniently loaded and unloaded from above—for example, using an overhead crane. This makes it perfect for bulky components that would be difficult to handle in other furnace designs.
Individually designed—tailored to your production process
Our industrial chest furnaces are individually tailored to your requirements. The lid can be opened either by a fully automated, electric motor-driven linear drive or a pneumatic system. For the safe positioning of your components, we can integrate adjustable supports into the usable space floor on request. We can also easily implement special solutions such as mobile chest furnaces or models with a usable space length of up to 12 meters.
Used across all industries
A chest furnace is suitable for many industrial heat treatment processes, including aging, curing, burn-in, heating, tempering, drying, or preheating. Thanks to precise temperature control, high-quality insulation, and robust construction, our systems offer process stability, durability, and low maintenance. This minimizes downtime and reduces your operating costs—a decisive advantage in both series and single-part production.
