Slab Heating Hot Working Furnace

The "Slab Heating Hot Working Furnace" is a specialized equipment used in the aluminum manufacturing process, particularly in the production of aluminum slabs. The furnace is employed to heat the aluminum slabs to the required temperature for hot working or forming processes, such as rolling or forging.

Usage of Slab Heating Hot Working Furnace:

• Preparing for Hot Working: The primary purpose of the slab heating hot working furnace is to raise the temperature of the aluminum slabs to the optimal range for subsequent hot working operations.
• Enhancing Workability: Heating the slabs to the proper temperature makes the aluminum more malleable and easier to shape during hot working processes.

How it Works:

• Loading: The aluminum slabs, which are typically cast and cooled after solidification, are loaded into the slab heating hot working furnace.
• Heating: The furnace raises the temperature of the slabs to the required hot working temperature. The specific temperature and heating time depend on the type of aluminum alloy and the intended hot working process.
• Soaking: The slabs are held at the elevated temperature for a specified soaking period. This ensures that the heat penetrates uniformly throughout the slabs.
• Unloading: After the heating process is complete, the slabs are unloaded from the furnace and sent for the hot working process, such as rolling or forging.
