Forced convection chamber furnace with top loading up to 850 °C
Need to heat treat large or heavy charges evenly at higher temperatures while maintaining precise control of the thermal cycle?
The KNC/V forced convection chamber furnace up to 850 °C is designed for industrial processes where temperature uniformity, forced air circulation and top loading are essential.
When is this furnace the right choice?
- You need heat treatment up to 850 °C
- You require forced air circulation
- You process larger, heavier or bulky charges
- You need top loading from above
- You work with tempering, ageing, annealing, curing, preheating or mould drying
- You need precise temperature uniformity for demanding industrial processes
The KNC/V furnace is suitable for heat treatment under normal atmosphere where the final result depends on uniform temperature distribution and a controlled thermal cycle. The forced air circulation system, together with a powerful central fan unit, helps distribute heat evenly throughout the furnace chamber and supports stable and repeatable process conditions. The 850 °C version uses a refractory circulation insert and bottom sheet, making it suitable for higher-temperature processes than the 650 °C version.
Key features:
- Maximum temperature 850 °C
- Recommended operating range 300–800 °C
- Vertical chamber design with top loading
- Forced air circulation
- Hydraulically controlled door opening towards the back
- Resistance heating with meanders
- Refractory circulation insert and bottom sheet for higher-temperature operation
- Available chamber volumes from 270 to 2000 L
- Maximum bottom load capacity up to 1500 kg
- Ht205 controller with 30 programmes of 15 steps each
- Type K thermocouple
- Terminal switching relays for safe furnace opening
- Limit unit
Typical applications
The KNC/V furnace is suitable for industrial heat treatment under normal atmosphere, especially where top loading, forced air circulation and temperature uniformity are important for repeatable results.
- Normalisation annealing
- Solution annealing of non-ferrous metals
- Annealing of non-ferrous metals
- Soft annealing
- Recrystallisation annealing
- Annealing for relieving stress
- Artificial ageing
- Low-temperature tempering
- High-temperature tempering
- Curing
- Preheating
Typical industries
- Heat treatment shops
- Metal processing
- Mechanical engineering
- Automotive suppliers
- Foundries and casting operations
- Toolmaking and mould production
- Testing and process development
Main benefits
- Even temperature distribution throughout the chamber
- Better temperature uniformity thanks to forced air circulation
- Convenient top loading for large and heavy charges
- Reliable repeatability for industrial heat treatment
Suitable for customers who need a vertical chamber furnace with top loading and forced air circulation for precise and repeatable heat treatment up to 850 °C.
For lower-temperature processes, consider the KNC/V 650 °C forced convection chamber furnace. If front loading is preferred, consider the KNC/H 850 °C forced convection chamber furnace. For large and heavy batches loaded on a bogie hearth, consider the VKNC 850 °C forced convection bogie hearth furnace.
