The new “Titan”-Your standard industrial furnace as a low-cost universal solution.

The newly developed Reinhardt standard industrial furnace series – “Titan” can often be a cost-effective alternative to the customised industrial furnace. The “Titan” by Reinhardt GmbH covers almost all areas of application in heat treatment. The basic idea is a modular system where the furnace can be easily configured for the respective application. Thus, everything from drying powder coatings to heat treatment of metals can be covered with this series. The optional design according to DIN EN 1539 is also possible. The heart of the system are in-house developed energy efficient high-performance turbines, which are available in various performance classes. With their state-of-the-art drives, they are superior to comparable ventilators in terms of efficiency. Together with the large selection of heating elements, a variety of power combinations are possible. Also new are the driveable, optimally insulated oven floor in sandwich construction and a completely revised door design.

Under the motto “less is more”, a more than adequate basic configuration has been created in the electronics. A modern PLC with a wide range of equipment options, such as recipe management or data logging, is also available as an option.

In the temperature range up to 300 degrees Celsius, our standard ovens can be used universally for preheating, tempering, drying, powder/paint drying, curing, etc. The temperature accuracy meets the usual requirements of +- 5°C, but can be increased on request. Of course, all Reinhardt standard industrial furnaces are designed according to the current standards and regulations, e.g. DIN EN 1539, DIN EN 746, DIN 17052-1, if required.

“Titan” series is initially offered in three sizes: 1.4 m³, 3.2 m³ and 6.7 m³. It replaces our “V-series”: Ventus, Venturi and Vortex.

• Heating

• Tempering

• Drying

• Curing

• Ageing

• Solution annealing

• and much more.

We tailor all these options to your individual space requirements. A wide variety of heating media (electric, gas direct or indirect, oil, etc.) can be used. A Reinhardt industrial furnace that is completely adapted to your needs will provide you with the best results tailored to your production process.

Furnace design for your process chain

Reinhardt industrial furnaces are optimally integrated into your production process in cooperation with you. We manufacture your industrial furnace as …

• … classic chamber furnace

• … bell-type furnace

• … continuous furnace

• … rotary hearth furnace

• … hearth bogie-type furnace

• … tempering furnace

This means that all heat engineering processes can be used. All types of requirements such as lifting doors, kiln cars, conveyor and handling systems can be realised.

Heat treatment up to 650 degrees Celsius: solution annealing, ageing, tempering, preheating

Our heat treatment systems are a safe solution for reliable process sequences in many metalworking processes. The following processes are classic applications for our heat treatment systems:

• Solution annealing and ageing of aluminium (T4-T7)

• Solution annealing and ageing of copper alloys (bronze and brass)

• Heat treatment of non-ferrous metals and alloys, e.g. magnesium, brass, copper, aluminium

• Tempering of steel during hardening

• Preheating before forming processes, e.g. flow forming or forging

• Use of the prepreg process as a tempering furnace

Furnace design according to your needs

With our various plant concepts, your individually tailored heat treatment plant can be optimally integrated into your working environment. We offer various plant concepts that can be individually adapted:

• Bell-type furnace systems

• Automated batch furnace systems

• Continuous furnace systems

• Rotary plate furnace systems, also multistage

Excellent at air quenching and water quenching

We offer both water quenching and air quenching, even in combination. Air quenching is gentler on the component than quenching with water. This minimises distortion of the component, especially with thin-walled parts (structural parts). Water quenching, on the other hand, is optimal for thick-walled and heavy components. Thanks to our process optimisation, the components are quenched effectively and yet gently.

Haptic and visual highlight: moulded skin from the slush moulding plant

The slush moulding process is used to produce precision-sintered moulded skins: The process, which is also called powder sintering, is mainly used in the automotive industry for the production of skins for vehicle interiors. Pleasant to touch yet robust surfaces with an appealing pattern or grain for door trim, dashboard, glove compartment cover or other trim are created in this way.

Slush moulding: temperature-sensitive process under control

• The manufacturing process of powder sintering seems simple at first:

• Preheating the mould (usually made of nickel or aluminium) to up to 300 degrees Celsius.

• Slush process: applying the plastic powder, which sintered onto the tool wall, rotating and turning the tool so that the liquefied plastic is optimally and evenly distributed and forms a uniform layer (usually between 1 and 1.2 millimetres thick).

• Pouring out the excess powder from the mould.

• Gelling: Here, the right temperature control is important – between 155 and 170 degrees Celsius are needed to melt the powder adhering to the mould into a gel.

• Cooling the mould: Here, too, it is important that the temperature is kept even and that the process is controlled so that the product can finally be removed from the mould cleanly and without leaving any residue.

Perfect results with our slush moulding systems are no coincidence

With rotary slush moulding systems from Reinhardt, you not only achieve perfection in the product, but also lower costs. Your advantages at a glance:

• Long service life of the slush moulds due to careful heating and cooling: This reduces the material stress.

• This reduces your costs for the procurement of new moulds: Longer durability increases their service life.

• Reinhardt systems for slush moulding offer a large frame for mould accommodation, giving you the option of using double or multiple moulds and reduced piece times.

• You benefit from the high flexibility of the moulds in the system. This gives you the option of using different moulds in circulation at the same time.

• We achieve a high temperature accuracy over the entire mould through our air heating system, thus achieving a good regularity of the skin thickness.

• The Reinhardt Slush Moulding System heats and cools very gently with air.

• The heating temperature is usually only 300° C or less.

• The service life of galvanos in our Slush Moulding systems is more than 100,000 cycles!

• Our systems comply with the European CE standards.

• Our slush moulding systems offer very good protection to the operators, especially in the safety area.
