We can adapt to the needs of our customers; therefore, if you have something in mind we can build it for you. With these ideas in mind, we strive to provide better services and products that will last and provide years of service. Furnace Selection Our industrial furnaces can be classified as one of two basic types, “Heat Treating Furnaces” also known as hardening furnaces and “Draw Furnaces” also known as annealing, tempering or forced convection furnaces. Heat treat (Hardening) furnaces have higher heat output power than draw furnaces due to the elevated temperatures at which they operate. Heat transfer to the tool steel is accomplished by a very efficient process called direct radiation. Temperature uniformity in these furnaces is best in the red heat range. Normal maximum temperature is 2250 °F (1232 °C). Optional 2400 °F (1316 °C) maximum temperature versions are available. Draw furnaces are used for tempering and other low temperature processes. They normally operate at temperatures below red heat range where heat transfer to the tool steel is accomplished by the process of convection heat transfer. To increase convection efficiency, these furnaces are equipped with a fan in the heating chamber to move air (Forced Convection). This delivers a temperature uniformity of ± 10 °F (± 6 °C) or better. Maximum temperature is 1250 °F (677 °C). Optional 2000 °F (1093 °C) maximum temperature versions are available. Heat treating processes consist of two basic steps, hardening and tempering. Hardening processes occur at high temperatures that are well into the red heat range. Drawing, tempering and annealing processes normally occur at temperatures below red heat range. When a part is hardened, it is heated to a high temperature, held there for a required time period, then removed from the furnace to be quenched (Cooled). This is usually accomplished by submerging the part into a liquid quenching material or by placing the part on a cooling rack in still air. The part should only be cooled to about 150 °F (66 °C), and then placed into a furnace at the tempering temperature. Due to the heat treat furnace not being able to cool as fast as the part, it is best to have a separate furnace for each step of the process. 2 Cress Manufacturing Company Inc. • 4736 Convair Drive • Carson City, Nevada 89706-0493 Digital Temperature Control Selection Digital temperature controls fall into two basic types, process controllers and high limit controls (over temperature controls). Process Controls handle the temperature and time requirements of the heat treat processes. These controls come in two types, non-programmable (single set point) and programmable. Non-Programmable controls such as the model 935 are a single set point control, you simply input the desired temperature, along with a length of time to hold this temperature once achieved. The furnace heats to the desired temperature as fast as possible, holds for the amount of time, then ends the process. At the end of the process, the control can either hold the temperature or let the furnace cool down. The timer can be disabled. When disabled the control only requires a temperature setting input. The furnace will stay at the set temperature until changed or turned off. This is the least expensive standard control. Programmable Controls such as the models SD4R and the F4H allow the heat up rate to be controlled, temperature can be ramped down as well as ramped up, multi-step heat treating can be input as a single process, and heat treat process programs can be stored in the controls memory for easy and accurate repeatability. In manual mode (non-program), the controls work the same as the model 935 with the timer disabled. High Limit Controls such as the model LV help protect the furnace and load in the case of a failure in the primary (process) control or other related primary control loop components. The high limit control loop is completely independent of the primary control loop. All control types are available with an optional audible alarm feature, which can signal a given process point or end of process. The programmable process controls are available with an optional data communication package which allows full control interface with a computer. WATLOW SD4 STANDARD CONTROL FOUR 10 STEP PROGRAM MEMORY FILES Microprocessor-based, ¼ DIN programmable ramping control providing four, 10 step program memory files, or easy to use non-ramping set point operation.
