Consider the numerous systems in your heat treat operations. What makes up the anatomy of each furnace? In this "Anatomy of a Furnace" series, industry experts indicate the main features of a specific heat treatment system. For this inaugural feature, note how the schematics demonstrate how the tip-up furnace is able to process massive loads in an atmospheric sealed environment at highly controlled temperatures.
Annotations for this furnace corpus were provided by Dan Herring, The Heat Treat Doctor®, The HERRING GROUP, Inc. A front view of a tip-up furnace as well as a back view of a different tip-up are provided along with the labels.
