Chamber furnaces for wire treatment Horizontal chamber furnaces from ILES are produced in two distinct series with maximum working temperatures of 500°C and 700°C. They are used for stress-relieving, tempering, structural hardening, ageing and annealing of non- ferrous materials.

The main characteristics of the furnaces are high thermal efficiency, achieved by thermal insulation with ceramic fibres in several layers at differentiated density, and mass-less wire heating elements placed directly in the air circuit. A patented vitrifying system, together with the special design of the internal deflector and of the high-revolution fan for air circulation, maintain temperature uniformity of ±5°C inside the treatment chamber. The furnaces can be supplied with several options, including: Protective atmosphere • Timer • Safety protection against over-temperatures • External roller plane (moveable type with rapid • clutch device on the furnace, fixed type or double type with motorised movement) Automated thermal cycle – no operator required • 4, 6, 8 or 12 post external storage units, with • loading system and automated thermal cycles
