INDUSTRIAL MOVING HOOD FURNACES
TRAVELLING HOOD FURNACES FOR LARGE LOAD HEAT TREATMENT
CDS Group designs and manufactures moving hood furnaces for specialist thermal processing applications where the furnace body travels to the load, rather than the load being moved into the furnace.
Moving hood furnaces are often used for large, heavy or difficult-to-handle components positioned on one or more fixed hearths or stationary bases. The hood travels horizontally between heating stations, helping support flexible loading, reduced handling and efficient use of floor space.
DESIGN APPROACH
CDS Group can engineer moving hood furnaces around load size, furnace travel arrangement, number of bases, operating temperature, burner configuration, insulation system and controls package needed for the application.
