Rotary hearth furnace

A circular furnace with a revolving hearth.

Rotary hearth furnaces are ideal for presenting heated components one at a time to a subsequent process, such as press quenching. They have a single door through which components are both loaded and unloaded. The speed of rotation is controlled to ensure that the components are thoroughly heated. Once they have rotated though 360º they will be at the required temperature and have returned to the door for unloading.
