Lindberg/MPH announced the shipment of an electrically heated, steam atmosphere, pit furnace with a steam generator for steam treating tools steels. Steam treating produces an oxide film on the surface of the part which improves wear and corrosion resistance, and provides a uniform blue-black finish
The pit furnace has a maximum temperature rating of 1250°F and work chamber dimensions of 22" diameter x 36" depth. The maximum gross workload is 1,200 lbs. Vacuum formed ceramic fiber modules with low heat storage provide fast heat up rates. The pit furnace also features a thermocartridge recirculating fan and solid wall baffle for uniform atmosphere and heat distribution.
“This new Lindberg design features a maintenance friendly fan and motor assembly which provides our customer with reliable and easy maintenance.”- Jason Dobberstein, Application Engineering Manager
