MHI Thermal Processing Solutions
Hybrid Ovens and Furnaces
AirtorchHybrid Furnaces

For Bottom Loader Hybrid Models (featured in adjacent picture) see NX models below for a chosen temperature of the furnace.

MHI has successfully combined two effective heat treating technologies to create a furnace that offers a high degree of temperature uniformity and energy efficiency. This unique thermal processing solution combines conventional radiative style heating with a patented forced air convection Airtorch technology. The result is furnaces that offer high temperature productivity with the added benefit of hot air/gas circulation inside the chamber to ensure excellent temperature distribution and uniformity. Other design features contribute to lower maintenance costs, higher safety and reduced liability issues. Being electric, the furnaces emit low noise levels and are pollution free.

If your application requires the recirculation of inert gases, MHI now offers several models of recirculating Airtorch that can be incorporated into the hybrid furnace design to further increase operating efficiency.

Airtorch
Hybrid Furnaces are useful when convection is required, even up to 1500°C (2732°F). Hybrid furnaces incorporate the Airtorch into molybdenum diSilicide/IR/GA-XP furnaces. All such furnaces are custom built. Please contact MHI for more details.

Continuous hybrid furnace.

Few ways of actually ensuring uniformity in a 75 feet long continuous furnace.

Bottom Loading Furnaces (BLE)

Bottom loading furnaces are the most uniform, with heating elements on all 4 sides. Optional production stream lined loading system (OPSL) available.
Smooth electronic hearth lift.
Reliable production units.
Most MHI bottom loading furnaces are transformerless, which reduces the weight and size.
Small foot print. Designed for modern production practices. Best for batch production!
Used for firing ceramics, NPT and dielectric materials, ferroelectric materials and for glass melting.
Call for information on customizing production furnaces for process manufacturing and glass melting.
 

Purge gas inlet option/Chimney exhaust port option

. 



MHI's extensive line of bottom-loading furnaces have the highest uniformity and energy efficiency ratings in their class. They are best for batch production as well as firing ceramics, ferroelectric, net materials, and for glass melting. Our bottom-loading furnaces also feature a smooth electronic hearth lift, purge gas inlet options, and various customization possibilities.

 

18-40 Models Hybrid Models

The 18-40 model furnaces offer the best of both in temperature and price range. This model is capable of 1760°C maximum temperature. Call MHI for more information.

The MHI NX series bottom loading hybrid furnace offers low temperature heating by convection using the Airtorch™ and high temperature sintering with molybdenum disilicide heating elements. For more information please call 513-772-0404.
