Wisconsin Oven Corp. shipped a gas-fired, two-lane indexing conveyor oven used for preheating sand cores. The sand cores are used in aluminum castings used to manufacture engine parts for the aerospace industry. The oven, which features 500,000 BTUs and 30,600 CFM of recirculation air, is designed with top-down airflow through the work chamber to deliver the air over the full width and length of the heating chamber. The ductwork is adjustable so it can be set for optimum air flow efficiencies. According to Wisconsin Oven, the company can also use the equipment as a batch oven for aluminum aging aerospace parts. The oven was fully factory tested and adjusted prior to shipment to help reduce installation and start-up times.
