Industrial Batch Ovens: Options and What You Need to Know

Published Date 23/08/2024

Batch ovens are industrial ovens designed for processing materials or products at a specified temperature for a set period. They are used for various processes such as baking, drying, curing, or heat treatment by bringing the product to a specific temperature. These ovens, designed based on factors such as product size, process requirements, and production volume, play a critical role in industrial production processes.

Application Areas:

Batch ovens have a wide range of applications in industrial production processes. General application areas are listed in processes;

Drying applications used in batch ovens, remove moisture from materials before processing and prepare their surfaces. This ensures more solid and high-quality results in subsequent processes. For products with high moisture content, higher-powered exhaust systems are used for quick moisture removal.

Curing application in batch ovens, the solvent vapors on painted surfaces evaporate with hot air, solidifying to form a film. In powder coating processes, these ovens cure powder coating materials, providing a durable coating through precise temperature and time control.

Heat Treatment application in batch ovens used in metallurgy and metal processing industries to alter the physical or mechanical properties of materials. Processes such as annealing, tempering, and stress relief can be applied.

Box ovens with various applications play a significant role in enhancing quality, durability, and efficiency in industrial production processes. As Elsisan, our box ovens are designed to reach operational capabilities of up to 250°C.

Insulated Panels:

In batch ovens, insulated panels reduce heat loss and maintain temperature values, enhancing thermal efficiency. Insulation material is placed between galvanized steel sheets, with rock wool used as standard. The thickness of the insulation material varies depending on the desired maximum temperature. Panels are coated with powder paint in the desired color and assembled in a sandwich panel format.

Control Panel:

The control panel of batch ovens comes with a touchscreen interface. The PLC control panel allows for recipe management, temperature and time adjustments, and sensor data reading. The system is controlled via sensors that monitor internal temperature, fan airflow, and exhaust temperature. The PLC control panel also enables stepwise adjustments over time and provides alerts if products are not removed after baking, preventing overexposure to heat.

Airflow Options:

As Elsisan, we offer various airflow options to increase process efficiency with industrial batch ovens. They are designed to suit your needs. Air channel vents can be manually adjusted to ensure good heat distribution. Below, you will find air flow options such as top to bottom, side to bottom and top to side shown as examples. Different air flow types can be designed to fit your needs.


Air circulation in the oven is provided by a fan. Thanks to the air channels extending along the oven and the vents placed on the ducts, a homogeneous heat distribution is achieved in the oven.

Heating Options:

Batch ovens manufactured by Elsisan, provide efficient heating options tailored to your needs, adapting to different energy sources to meet your industrial needs.

Electric: Our electrically operated batch ovens generate heat through high quality serpentine resistors. Serpentine resistors directly convert electrical energy into thermal energy and provide heat distribution with fans inside the oven.

Natural Gas: Our batch ovens powered by natural gas provide energy through natural gas burners. The burners burn natural gas, provide high temperature combustion and transfer this energy into the oven, bringing your products to the desired temperature.

Steam: Steam heating options utilize existing steam lines. Energy from the steam exchanger heats the oven for your products. This method is suitable for large-scale facilities with easy access to steam.

 

Conclusion

As Elsisan, we provide various options to meet your industrial batch oven needs, helping you achieve effective production solutions. We prioritize high customer satisfaction and manage every aspect of the product lifecycle from design to delivery.
