industrial conveyor ovens

Horizon manufactures industrial conveyor ovens, also known as continuous process ovens, designed for applications requiring consistent, high-volume production. These systems provide significant advantages over batch ovens, particularly when uninterrupted processing is essential. The continuous flow of materials through the oven ensures a stable environment, minimizing downtime and optimizing overall production efficiency and throughput.

Horizon Cyclone Ovens™ stand out for their industry-leading temperature consistency, leveraging our patented Cyclone Technology™ to maintain uniformity as low as +/- 2°F. This precision is critical for applications where strict heating specifications are necessary to ensure the quality of the processed parts. Multi-zoned configurations enable a variable temperature profile within the oven, allowing precise heat treatment for varying manufacturing needs.

Cyclone conveyor ovens are ideal for processing small to medium-sized parts that can be transported along a conveyor, with custom conveyance methods like overhead monorail, mesh belt, chain-on-edge, chain-on-flat, slats, basket, tray, cable, and roller conveyors available. Horizon offers both continuous and indexing conveyor systems, allowing flexibility in part movement through the oven. The ovens can be tailored in size and configurations to match the specific requirements of the largest substrates in the production line.

revolutionizing thermal processing with cyclone technology™

Horizon's Cyclone Technology™ is a game-changer for industrial conveyor ovens, dramatically improving efficiency and sustainability. By optimizing airflow and temperature distribution, it significantly reduces processing times and the required oven size, saving valuable floor space. By adopting Cyclone Technology™, businesses can achieve both economic and environmental goals while enhancing their production efficiency.

Key benefits of Cyclone Technology™ include:
  • Energy Efficiency:The elimination of traditional interior duct work in Cyclone Ovens™ minimizes airflow resistance and reduces pressure losses needed for convection heating. The enhanced insulation and extra thick welded plate walls boost heat retention and reduce energy loss. Together they significantly lower operating costs by reducing heat loss through the oven walls.
  • High-Efficiency Airflow:Cyclone ovens optimize heat transfer through high-volume, low-pressure airflow, resulting in shorter process times and potentially smaller ovens.
  • Smart Controls:Dependable Advanced Technology Controls feature variable frequency drives and PLC systems to allow for precise temperature and fan control in response to changing production loads.
  • Reversible Air Recirculation: Cyclone Technology™ ensures uniform heat distribution and enhances process capabilities for sensitive materials.
  • Reduced Motor Horsepower:75-80% less motor horsepower for recirculation fans, results in substantial electricity savings.

Cyclone ovens™: engineered for peak performance

  • Temperature Uniformity: Consistent oven temperature is essential to most heat processes. Some require uniformity to guarantee product strength and structural integrity, while others need it to ensure that coatings and paints achieve optimal adhesion.Temperature fluctuations are a common challenge for most industrial ovens, but Horizon’s patented Cyclone Technology™ minimizes this issue by maintaining an internal oven temperature variation as tight as 2°F—an industry-leading standard!
  • Heat-Up Time and Oven Size: Cyclone Technology™ accelerates the average air velocity surrounding the part or product to three to six times faster than traditional ovens. This results in quicker heat-up times and improved heat transfer. Faster product heating can reduce the required size of the conveyor oven, saving space with a smaller factory footprint.
  • Energy Efficiency: With lower horsepower fans, enhanced heat transfer, and the potential for a more compact oven size, a Cyclone Oven™ offers significant energy savings, making it both a cost-effective and eco-friendly option.

horizon cyclone construction surpasses conventional conveyor ovens

CYCLONE OVENS™
TRADITIONAL OVENS
CONSTRUCTION
Wall sections are welded with no open seams-heat and fumes stay in; foreign materials stay out
Tongue & groove panels that allow for heat leakage and the escape of contaminants
WALLS
Firmer 18-gauge aluminized or stainless-steel sheet metal that is 11% thicker acts as a radiant heat shield enhancing temperature uniformity
Typically, 20-gauge sheet metal. The panels slide into each other approximately every three feet, creating a seam between every panel
FANS
Create a controlled and powerful air circulation that moves hot air in a spiraling or cyclonic pattern throughout the oven chamber. These airflow dynamics lower resistance and optimized heat exchange so the fans can operate at 1/5 the energy of traditional fans
Consume 5x the motor horsepower and generate inconsistent oven chamber heat thus negatively affecting part quality, requiring longer processing times and greater long-term energy costs. Traditional fans may also experience more wear due to the higher fan speeds required for heat distribution
DUCTWORK
Airflow is high volume/ low pressure; No bulky ductwork. The efficient airflow dynamics resulting from Cyclone Technology™ generate consistent heat and air distribution without the need for complex ductwork systems
Traditional ovens often have a more compartmentalized design with separate sections for heating elements, air distribution ducts, and return air paths, leading to a greater need for extensive ductwork
INSULATION
Thicker and heavier non-settling 6" Rockwool™ 4LB industrial grade insulation is used to minimize heat loss and ensure walls are cool to the touch
Typically utilizes a standard 3”-4” insulation
