Heat treatment is one of the four basic processes (forging, casting, heat treatment and surface treatment) in the equipment manufacturing industry. The level of heat treatment technology plays a decisive role in the added value of the whole machine manufacturing. The heat treatment process refers to placing the metal material in a certain medium to undergo three processes of heating, heat preservation and cooling, and changing the surface or internal structure of the metal material to achieve the required corrosion resistance, wear resistance, fatigue resistance and other properties, thereby greatly improving the performance and service life of workpiece materials such as gears, bearings, and chain rails.
The heat treatment process is divided into overall heat treatment, surface heat treatment, and chemical heat treatment. Overall heat treatment can be divided into 8 processes, including annealing, normalizing, quenching, tempering, and tempering. Surface heat treatment is a metal heat treatment process that only heats the surface of the workpiece to change its surface mechanical properties. It is mainly divided into 5 processes, including surface quenching and tempering, physical vapor deposition, etc. Chemical heat treatment is a metal heat treatment process that changes the chemical composition, structure and properties of the surface of the workpiece. It is mainly divided into 7 processes, including carburizing, nitriding, carbonitriding, and metal infiltration.
Industrial heat treatment furnaces can be divided into batch (intermittent) and continuous heat treatment furnaces according to different operation modes, and can be divided into box furnaces, mesh belt furnaces, pusher furnaces, roller furnaces, rotary hearth furnaces, pit furnaces and bell furnaces according to different furnace structures. Heat treatment is one of the four basic processes in the equipment manufacturing process and is widely used in industrial industries such as automobiles, mechanical basic parts, and aerospace. It can ensure and improve various properties of workpieces, such as strength, hardness, plasticity, toughness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, etc.; it can also improve the organization and stress state of the blank to facilitate various cold and hot processing.
Batch (intermittent) heat treatment furnace is a commonly used heat treatment equipment, which can process workpieces in batches. The equipment usually consists of one or more furnaces, each of which can accommodate a batch of workpieces. During the heat treatment process, the workpiece is placed in the furnace, then heated to a certain temperature for treatment, and finally taken out after cooling. Batch heat treatment equipment is suitable for processing small batches of workpieces. Because only one batch of workpieces can be processed at a time, the processing time is relatively long. It is usually used for heat treatment processes such as quenching, tempering, and annealing of workpieces. The advantages of batch heat treatment equipment are simple operation and wide application range. It can process workpieces of various materials and shapes. At the same time, due to the small number of workpieces processed each time, the quality and heat treatment effect of the workpiece can be better controlled. Compared with continuous furnaces, batch equipment has greater flexibility.
Continuous heat treatment furnaces usually consist of a continuously running conveying system and a series of heat treatment process equipment. The working principle of continuous heat treatment equipment is to continuously feed metal materials into the heating furnace through the conveying system for heating, then maintain a certain insulation time, then cool it through the cooling equipment, and finally take the processed materials out of the equipment. Continuous heat treatment equipment can be used for various heat treatment processes, such as annealing, quenching, tempering, etc. It has the advantages of high efficiency, energy saving, high degree of automation, etc., and is suitable for mass production of metal products processing industry.
There are many types of industrial heat treatment furnaces, which can be mainly divided into batch (intermittent) and continuous types. At present, from the perspective of market application, batch (intermittent) is widely used, suitable for small and medium-sized batch production of workpieces of multiple specifications, accounting for about 68% of the market share.
From the perspective of product market application, the automotive and transportation fields occupy a significant share, accounting for about 26% of the total market. In the automotive manufacturing industry, highly automated production lines are combined with a wide variety and large number of automotive parts, which puts forward strict requirements on the consistency and stability of heat treatment equipment in the manufacturing process. Looking to the future, heat treatment furnaces in the automotive market will move towards achieving better consistency and higher stability, in order to gradually reduce the scrap rate of automotive parts.
Industrial heat treatment furnace companies are mainly distributed in the United States, Europe (Austria, Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Poland, etc.), China, Japan and other countries. In recent years, China has made many progress and breakthroughs in the field of heat treatment furnaces. However, in the field of high-end applications, China's heat treatment furnaces still have a certain gap in performance, efficiency and environmental protection performance compared with the international advanced level. Therefore, the high-end and advanced heat treatment equipment market still relies heavily on imported brands, such as Inductotherm and Saet in the United States, and well-known companies such as Aichelin Group, SECO/WARWICK, Tenova and Ipsen in Europe.
At present, in the Chinese industrial heat treatment furnace market, the main manufacturers include Inductotherm and Park-Ohio (Saet Emmedi and GH) in the United States, Aichelin, Aichelin and EBNER in Austria, IHI and JTEKT in Japan, and Chinese local companies Shanghai Heatking Induction, Tanshan Yaje Furnace, Jiangsu Fengdong, Strong Metal Technology, Naura Technology, Jiangsu KingKind and Henan Tianli, etc. In 2023, the share of China's TOP10 manufacturers will exceed 40%, and it is expected that the competition in the field of mid-to-high-end heat treatment equipment will become more intense in the next few years.
