Stress Relieving Conveyor Oven with Wire Mesh
LEWCO recently shipped its 12th stress relieving conveyor oven to a long-standing customer in the stamped and formed metal parts industry. This repeat order is a testament to the trust we’ve built through consistent performance, exceptional craftsmanship, and equipment that stands the test of time. For this manufacturer, precision heat treatment isn’t optional, it’s essential, and LEWCO continues to deliver solutions that keep their production running efficiently.
At the heart of this system is a compact conveyor oven operating at temperatures up to 650°F, powered by a unique direct-fired natural gas burner. Because of the oven’s small footprint, it’s equipped with a specially designed burner that produces a short flame pattern and reduced heat capacity compared to traditional burners. This tailored approach ensures optimal heat distribution without compromising safety or energy efficiency.
To complete the process, the system integrates a 10-foot-long LEWCO wire mesh belt conveyor, allowing parts to cool gradually as they exit the oven. This built-in cooling stage not only streamlines workflow but also enhances product consistency and quality. By combining custom heating technology with our proven conveyor designs, LEWCO provides the brains and the bronze to keep your quality high and production on schedule.
