Pusher furnaces and kilns up to 2,500°F (1,400°C)
Pusher Furnaces utilize the sequential pushing of carriers through the system by a ram from one end. Higher process temperatures (up to 2,500°F / 1,400°C) than on belt furnace are typical.
The system allows the use of sealed end vestibules to control the atmoshere inside the furnace. A special class of small format pusher furnace uses a ceramic muffle, usually a round or D tube with Molybdenum or platinum wire wound around the outside.
Applications:
- calzining of ceramic powders inside a sagger
- sintering of metals
- production of soft ferrites
- nitriding, case hardening and carburizing of metals
