Continuous furnaces are extremely versatile and can be employed to perform a multitude of processes. They are an excellent for medium and high volume products. Some of the benefits are:
• Superior part to part temperature uniformity
• Increased throughput
• Process combination
• Lower up-front investment
• Reduced changeover times
Superior temperature uniformity – dimensions and design of a continuous furnace mean the heating elements are more evenly spaced along the length of the chamber to reduce potential cold spots
Increased throughput – there is no stopping and starting between batches: the only consideration to make is the pay-off changeover: speed calculations can be made to ensure that the effect this has is minimal to virtually non-existent
