Continuous strip furnaces

ANDRITZ METALS provides state-of-the-art furnaces of different types for continuous strip processing lines. Whether for carbon steel, stainless steel, or silicon steel, a suitable furnace design is available.

Depending on the requirements, these furnaces are able to process strip dimensions of 0.05 mm to 13 mm thickness, and up to 2000 mm in width. The atmosphere inside the furnaces can be a normal waste gas or a protective atmosphere – typically a mixture of nitrogen and hydrogen or even pure hydrogen.

The range of horizontal or vertical furnaces covers handling of all different strip qualities. The optimized design minimizes energy consumption and space requirements, while the strip quality fulfills mechanical property as well as surface quality requirements.

The furnaces are always delivered with the appropriate automation software, designed and optimized by mathematical simulation models. Integration of these furnaces into the complete processing line is one of the benefits that ANDRITZ METALS offers as a strip processing line provider. Extensive experience and the latest technology enable ANDRITZ METALS to supply customized turnkey solutions.
