BELL TYPE FURNACE

BELL ANNEALING FURNACE is widely used for annealing of Ferrous

and Non-Ferrous(Copper, Brass, Alum., Tin, Zinc etc.,) coils. The coils can be
of strips, wire or any other shape which can be loaded in the furnace. The
furnace can be electrically heated, oil fired or gas fired. It can also be used for
de-carburising of Stampings.

Bell Type Furnace is be a versatile furnace suitable for black, bright

and spherodized annealing of steel and non-ferrous strips, wires and general
heat treatment processes upto 1200°c.

AEC offers a standalone application wide Bell Furnaces which gives

more efficiency and less Process Cost. The Construction and Operation of
AEC Bell Furnaces differs with any other manufacturers. So that AEC
Furnaces are called ‘Third Generation Furnaces’. It overcomes all troubles
faced with traditional type of Bell Furnaces in industries which are Hooking &
Picking up the Furnace shell and placing it on another stage for process and
also keeping it in right position for leak proof sealing becomes very difficult in
previous days. But AEC made Automatic – almost all operations, even AEC
made to no use of Over Head Crane itself.
Construction & Operation:
The furnace is of cylindrical furnace in top hood design, that is the
furnace kept on the Up and Down Sliding Hydraulic Piston at it two sides in
the inverted position and Hence Total Inverted Furnace is able to move up
unto the working height of Furnace. The Furnace shell will be of robust
construction suitably reinforced with rolled sections. The furnace rests on the
inner cover with ceramic fibre sealing in between. The inner cover rests on
the Indexing Bed with neoprene seal in between for making the inner chamber
gas tight. There are two Indexing Beds at the bottom of furnace can be moved
to and fro by Hydraulic Indexing System. By this ability of Indexing Beds, Heat
Treatment process is carried out by one Indexing Head and other Head can
be loaded for next Batch Process.
Once the Pre- Programmed process by PLC is completed, the Alarm
will be given by Control System followed by (opening) lifting up of furnace.
Then Preloaded material is indexed to the Furnace bottom and taken into the
next process cycle. The Processed Material is freely available outside now
and it can be unloaded & reloaded with new material opting to process. Hence
continuous Process without loosing Heat inside Furnace and with less
process cost, many of Heat Treatment Process are done by this Bell
Furnaces.

Applications:

Bell furnace are used for heat treatment of following materials:

• Coils of gold, Silver, Brass, Tin Ti, Pt, Cu, Zn, Al, GI etc.
• Rolled steel tape
• Middle and thick hot - rolled plates, bars and wire bundles.
• Annealing / Bright Annealing
• Carburizing
• Hardening
• Martempering
• Stress Relieving
• Preheating
• Solution treating
