Heavy duty applications: For heavy duty applications most furnaces are equipped with a hard wearing chamber hearth and higher rated heating elements for faster heat up and longer lifetime.

Carbolite Gero offers continuous mesh belt furnaces with a maximum operating temperature of 1100 °C. Mesh belt furnaces are suitable for a wide range of heat treat applications including hardening, annealing, tempering and stress relieving. Furnaces can be designed for single or multi-zone operation and water cooled zones can also be offered. Each mesh belt furnace can be supplied with both inert and reactive atmospheres, O2 monitoring and compliance with AMS 2750E. The number of controlled heating and cooling zones, length of zones, belt width, control cabinets, and type of atmosphere control system can all be specified to meet individual customer’s processing requirements.

Carbon fibers or carbon fibres (alternatively CF, graphite fiber or graphite fibre) are a modern material for high-tech applications. The fibers are about 5–10 micrometres in diameter and composed mostly of carbon atoms. Carbolite Gero offers three main types of furnaces for carbon fibre R&D and production.
