Heat treatment furnace for aluminum alloy
Equipment structure and working principle
1. Structural design
The aluminum alloy quenching furnace is mainly composed of the following parts:
Furnace body: Made of high-quality heat-resistant materials to ensure stability and sealing in high-temperature environments.
Furnace door lifting system: Electric or hydraulic drive, achieving rapid opening and closing to reduce heat loss.
Material frame and hoisting mechanism: High-temperature resistant material frames are used to carry workpieces, and the chain hook system ensures smooth lifting and lowering.
Quenching water tank: Mobile design, equipped with a temperature control system to ensure the stability of the quenching liquid temperature.
2. Workflow
1. Loading stage: Move the material frame containing the workpiece to the bottom of the furnace hood, open the furnace door, and hoist the material frame into the furnace chamber through the chain hook, then close the furnace door.
2. Heating stage: Start the heating system and carry out solution heat treatment according to the set temperature curve. The temperature control accuracy can reach ±1℃, ensuring uniform heating of the workpiece.
3. Quenching stage: After heating is completed, move the bottom water tank to the bottom of the furnace cover, open the furnace door and quickly immerse the material frame (workpiece) into the quenching liquid. The quenching transfer time only needs 8-12 seconds (adjustable), effectively avoiding the decline of material properties.
4. Aging treatment (optional) : According to the process requirements, subsequent aging treatment can be carried out to further enhance the strength and hardness of the aluminum alloy.
Technical advantage
High-precision temperature control
The advanced PID intelligent temperature control system is adopted, with a temperature control accuracy as high as ±1℃, ensuring uniform temperature of aluminum alloy workpieces during the solution treatment process and avoiding fluctuations in material performance caused by overheating or underheating.
2. Rapid quenching transfer
The quenching transfer time is controlled within 8 to 12 seconds (adjustable), significantly reducing the temperature loss of the workpiece during the transfer from high temperature to the quenching medium, and ensuring the mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of the aluminum alloy.
3. Customizable design
Working dimensions: Customized according to customer requirements, suitable for aluminum alloy workpieces of different specifications.
Quenching tank volume: Flexible adjustment to meet different production capacity demands.
Quenching fluid temperature control: Adjustable from 60 to 90℃, to meet the quenching requirements of different alloy materials.
4. Energy-saving and highly efficient
The optimized furnace structure and heating system effectively reduce energy consumption, improve production efficiency, and are suitable for large-scale continuous operations.
