Description
The pusher type furnace is a continuous thermal processing system designed for high-efficiency reduction and sintering of metal powders and powder metallurgy components. It is particularly well-suited for the reduction of refractory metal powders such as tungsten and molybdenum, as well as for the sintering of compacted parts in high-throughput manufacturing environments.
Featuring a linear pusher mechanism, the furnace enables precise, consistent material transport through multiple heating zones, each with independently controlled temperature and atmosphere settings. This ensures uniform heating, optimized reaction kinetics, and repeatable metallurgical results across large production volumes.
Its robust design supports operation under reducing atmospheres such as hydrogen or inert gases, preventing oxidation and ensuring high-purity output. Engineered for continuous operation with minimal maintenance, the pusher type furnace delivers excellent process stability, low energy consumption, and high productivity — making it ideal for large-scale powder metallurgy and advanced materials processing applications.
