Reheating Furnaces Overview
Reheating furnaces are essential equipment in the steel manufacturing industry, specifically in the hot rolling process. These furnaces are designed to reheat steel slabs, billets, or blooms to the optimal temperature required for subsequent rolling operations. Our range of reheating furnaces is engineered to provide efficient and uniform heating, ensuring the proper plasticity and workability of the steel during the rolling process.
Range of Reheating Furnaces

Pusher Type Reheating Furnaces

Pusher type reheating furnaces feature a pusher mechanism that moves the steel billets or slabs through the furnace on a series of refractory skids.
They are suitable for continuous and high-volume production, ensuring rapid and uniform heating of the steel.
Walking beam reheating furnaces utilize a walking beam mechanism to transport the steel billets or slabs through the furnace.
They provide gentle and precise handling of the steel, ensuring uniform heating and minimizing surface damage or deformation.

Key Features and Benefits
Efficient Heating
Reheating furnaces are equipped with advanced combustion systems, insulation materials, and control mechanisms to ensure efficient heat transfer and energy utilization. They provide rapid and uniform heating, reducing cycle times and optimizing production efficiency.
Temperature Control
Our reheating furnaces feature precise temperature control systems that enable operators to set and maintain the desired heating temperature for different steel grades and product specifications. This ensures consistent and controlled heating, resulting in the desired material properties during the subsequent rolling process.
Uniform Heating
The design of our reheating furnaces, coupled with advanced combustion technology and heat distribution systems, ensures uniform heating of the steel material. This minimizes temperature variations across the steel product, promoting even plasticity and workability during rolling operations.
Reduced Scale Formation
Reheating furnaces are equipped with scale prevention measures, such as protective atmospheres or coatings, to minimize scale formation on the steel surface during the heating process. This helps maintain the cleanliness of the steel, reducing surface defects and improving the quality of the rolled products.
Automation and Safety
Our reheating furnaces are equipped with advanced automation and safety features, including temperature monitoring, flame detection, and interlock systems. These features ensure reliable and safe operation, protecting both the equipment and personnel involved in the heating process.
Application
Hot Rolling Mills
Reheating furnaces are integral components of hot rolling mills, where they are used to reheat steel slabs, billets, or blooms prior to the rolling process. They provide the necessary temperature and plasticity required for shaping the steel into various forms, such as plates, sheets, or structural sections.
Metal Fabrication
In metal fabrication operations, reheating furnaces are utilized to heat steel materials prior to bending, shaping, or welding. By providing controlled and precise heating, they enhance the formability and workability of the steel, facilitating the fabrication processes.
Steel Forging
Reheating furnaces are also used in steel forging processes, where they are responsible for heating the steel billets or ingots to the appropriate temperature for forging. By providing uniform and controlled heating, they ensure that the steel is malleable and ready for shaping and forming into the desired forged products.
Heat Treatment Facilities
Reheating furnaces find application in heat treatment facilities, where they are used for preheating steel components before undergoing processes such as annealing, quenching, or tempering. They enable the steel to reach the required temperature range for the subsequent heat treatment, ensuring the desired material properties are achieved.
Steel Service Centers
Steel service centers utilize reheating furnaces to process and heat steel materials for various downstream applications. They enable the customization and preparation of steel products according to customer requirements, ensuring optimal material properties for subsequent use.
Research and Development
Reheating furnaces are employed in research and development facilities to study the behavior of different steel grades and alloys under specific heating conditions. They allow researchers to simulate industrial heating processes and evaluate the material properties and performance of the steel under various temperature profiles.
In summary, our range of reheating furnaces offers efficient and precise heating solutions for a variety of applications in the steel manufacturing industry. Whether used in hot rolling mills, steel service centers, forging operations, heat treatment facilities, metal fabrication, research, or specialized steel production, our reheating furnaces provide reliable and uniform heating, enabling the production of high-quality steel products. We continuously strive to innovate and customize our furnaces to meet the unique needs and requirements of our customers, ensuring optimal performance and customer satisfaction.
