With a rotary kiln for thermal treatment of powder materials, you can uniformly heat treat the powder while stirring, and since the temperature can also be measured, the quality is improved.

A powder material heat treatment furnace, known as a rotary kiln, is an industrial heat treatment furnace that heats and sinters powder raw materials while stirring them inside a rotating furnace core tube. This equipment can be used for the sintering, sintering, reduction, oxidation, nitriding, and drying of powder materials, including batteries. Since it stirs the powder while drying and heat treating in a rotary manner, there are no inconsistencies. There are two types of rotary kilns: "batch type" and "continuous type." The "batch type" can process mixing, drying, and heat treatment in one go. The "continuous type" can handle larger production volumes. 【Features】 ● It can accommodate 100% hydrogen due to its special gas seal structure. ● It can propose everything necessary for powder processing, including front and rear equipment. ● In the batch type, gas switching is possible during heat treatment. Please consult us for small lot production, heat treatment testing, and small sample manufacturing. If you are considering converting from a batch type to a continuous furnace due to increased processing volume, we can also provide transition proposals.

The "sintering furnace" can mass-produce high-precision parts and is used in the manufacturing of various mechanical components, including automotive parts.

The "sintering and firing furnace" is a furnace that gives a certain shape and strength by placing powder into a mold and forming and heating it to harden. It is mainly used for the production of ceramics and battery materials. The name changes depending on the material being hardened: oxide-based materials like ceramics are referred to as "firing furnace," while heat treatment of metal powders is called "sintering furnace." Types of metal powders include iron, copper, aluminum, titanium, lithium, and manganese. 【Features】 ● Customization is possible, such as adding degreasing and adjusting the purity of the atmosphere gas. ● Preheating, heating, and cooling zones can be integrated into a single unit. ● Temperature and time can be freely adjusted according to the type of material and heating conditions. The "sintering and firing furnace" comes in batch and continuous types. 【Case Studies】 ■ Want to degrease or protect the surface of powder from an oxidizing atmosphere in powder metallurgy → "Vacuum Sintering Furnace" ■ Want to adjust the gas purity in the furnace atmosphere → "Pusher Type Sintering Furnace" ■ Want to fire glass paste used on substrates → "Conveyor Type Glass Firing Furnace" ■ Want to mold difficult-to-sinter materials with high precision → "Hot Press Furnace"

A "vacuum furnace" maintains luster and enhances the value of metal materials. Since post-processes such as pickling and degreasing are unnecessary, work efficiency improves, and energy-saving effects can be expected.

When heat treatment is performed in the atmosphere, steel reacts with oxygen, resulting in the formation of oxide scale on the surface, so it is used when one wants to avoid an oxidizing atmosphere. Performing heat treatment in a vacuum atmosphere allows for the degreasing and degassing of organic substances adhered to the surface of the metal material, resulting in a surface with the inherent luster of the metal material after treatment. 【Features】 ● It is possible to enhance the value of metal materials by maintaining their luster. ● Since subsequent processes such as acid cleaning and degreasing are unnecessary, work efficiency is improved. 【Case Studies】 ■ I want to anneal copper without oxidation → 'Vacuum Annealing Furnace' ■ I want to achieve a clean finish on the surface of the treated product → 'Vacuum Quenching Furnace' ■ I want to improve the wettability for brazing → 'Vacuum Brazing Furnace' ■ I want to improve the hot working environment around the furnace → 'Vacuum Furnace'

With an "atmosphere furnace" that performs heat treatment using atmosphere gases tailored to the properties of the materials, oxidation and decarburization, as well as improvements in material properties and post-processing steps, can be carried out smoothly.

When steel undergoes heat treatment in the atmosphere, oxidation and decarburization can occur, which may necessitate surface finishing and other processing. Therefore, atmosphere furnaces are often used to fill the furnace with atmosphere gases to reduce post-processing efforts or to suppress oxidation and decarburization, depending on the application. The atmosphere gases used can vary widely, including inert gases such as nitrogen and argon, as well as hydrogen and AX gas, depending on the material properties and the purpose of the heat treatment. 【Features】 ● Gas switching is possible during heat treatment. ● Various types of furnaces are available, including batch and continuous types. ● We handle degreasing furnaces for powder metallurgy. 【Case Studies】 ■ Want to anneal aluminum without oxidation → 'Roller Hearth Annealing Furnace' ■ Want to carburize the material → 'Batch Type Atmosphere Gas Carburizing Furnace' ■ Want to nitrify powders → 'Retort Rotary Nitriding Furnace' If you have any new challenges or inquiries regarding energy conservation, automation, environmental considerations, or safety, please feel free to contact us.

[To the owners of parking lots and parking lot construction companies] "I'm worried about not colliding with pedestrians when leaving the parking lot in my car..." Among vehicle entrances to parking lots, stores, residences, and factories, those particularly facing sidewalks or roadways are expected to pose risks of dangerous incidents such as collisions with pedestrians or between vehicles. To alleviate such concerns, Hotron proposes a [Departure Warning Sensor] that detects vehicle departures using various sensors and alerts the surroundings with LED lights and buzzers. The device consists of a simple configuration of "Sensor" + "Controller" + "Switching Power Supply (24V)" + "LED Rotating Light." *Please note that a separate control panel including the controller and switching power supply (24V) is required when using the departure warning system. *We kindly ask customers to arrange for the switching power supply (24V), LED rotating light, control panel, circuit breakers, etc. Since it can be retrofitted, it can also be used for existing parking lot entrances. We hope this will contribute to safer vehicle passage for everyone. ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
