Project Background and Core Process Requirements
WONDERY recently delivered an RJ3-45-9 pit-type electric resistance quenching furnace to a client in Vietnam (Mia Nguyen). The client specializes in the high-temperature heat treatment of shafts and rods, requiring exceptional stability at the 850 ℃ normal operating temperature and high structural integrity for heavy workpiece loading.
Technical Solutions and Parameterized Evidence
1. High-Strength Furnace Structure for Long-Term Service
To withstand the impact of hoisting heavy shafts, WONDERY reinforced the structural design:
Frame Construction: The furnace shell is welded from 10#~12# channel steel and 4-14mm high-quality steel plates, ensuring the frame remains rigid and deformation-free under high-temperature cycling.
Load Support: The furnace bottom is constructed with heavy-duty refractory bricks, providing both weight-bearing capacity and thermal insulation for the foundation.
2. Advanced Insulation System and Thermal Efficiency
To minimize energy loss at the 950 ℃ rated temperature, a multi-layer composite insulation structure was implemented:
Core Material: High-quality zirconium-aluminum refractory fiber blocks from Shandong Luyang, featuring a maximum temperature resistance of 1260 ℃.
Density and Thickness: The fiber blocks undergo secondary pre-compression, achieving a total insulation thickness of 325 mm (including ≥300 mm fiber blocks and a 25 mm back-up layer).
Environmental Impact: The exterior wall temperature rise is strictly controlled within ≤45 ℃, significantly improving the shop floor environment.
3. Reliable Heating Elements and Installation
Element Material: Utilizes 0Cr25AL5 high-resistance alloy, processed into corrugated strips and installed around the furnace perimeter for uniform radiant heating.
Anti-Short Circuit Design: Resistance strips are secured with specialized high-alumina ceramic screws and washers. This eliminates the risk of thermal short circuits between the elements and the fiber wall while simplifying maintenance.
4. Intelligent Temperature Control and Safety Interlocks
Control Accuracy: Features a Japanese Shimaden intelligent PID controller paired with a thyristor triggering mechanism, achieving a control accuracy of ±1 ℃ at the measuring point.
HMI: Equipped with a 10.1-inch industrial touchscreen, supporting real-time process recording, historical data retrieval, and multi-level over-temperature alarms.
Safety Logic: Integrated interlocks automatically cut off power to heating elements and fans when the furnace lid is opened, complemented by limit switches to prevent operational accidents.
Delivery Specifications and Key Parameters
Effective Working Dimensions: Ø 700 × 900 mm.
Rated Heating Power: 45 kW (1-100% adjustable).
Sealing Method: Employs a sand-seal structure between the furnace lid and body to prevent heat escape.
Project Background and Core Process Requirements
WONDERY recently delivered an RJ2-45-6 pit-type electric resistance furnace to a client in Vietnam. The customer, Mia Nguyen, primarily processes small and medium-sized metal or alloy parts. Given the standard operating range of 200-550 ℃, the client emphasized strict temperature uniformity to ensure consistent mechanical properties during tempering and stress relief.
Technical Solutions and Parameterized Evidence
1. High-Precision Temperature Field Control (±5 ℃ Uniformity)
To counteract typical vertical temperature gradients in pit furnaces, the equipment integrates a robust hot air circulation system:
Circulation Power: Equipped with a 2.2 KW air-cooled centrifugal fan
Air Duct Design: Constructed from 3mm thick 304 stainless steel with an inner diameter of 700mm to ensure optimal airflow penetration.
Control Logic: Utilizes a Japanese Shimaden intelligent PID controller paired with SCR power regulation, achieving instrument control accuracy of ±1 ℃. The temperature field uniformity in the working area is maintained within ±5 ℃.
2. Energy-Efficient All-Fiber Lining Construction
To address long-term operational energy costs, WONDERY optimized the insulation structure:
