Carburizing Pit Furnace
The carburizing Pit Furnace is an industrial furnace that is specifically designed for carburizing and carbonitriding various steel parts used in the automotive industry. The process involves the diffusion of carbon into the surface of the steel parts, resulting in a hard and wear-resistant surface. This process is used to increase the durability and strength of gears, bearings, and other automotive components.
The carburizing Pit Furnace consists of a pit or chamber that is lined with insulation material and is heated by a gas-fired burner system. The furnace operates in a controlled atmosphere of endothermic gas or a mixture of nitrogen and methanol. The steel parts are placed in baskets or fixtures and loaded into the furnace, where they are heated to a predetermined temperature and held at that temperature for a specific time period.
