INDUSTRIAL CONVEYOR OVENS
As one of the leading industrial conveyor oven manufacturers, Horizon designs and builds continuous process ovens engineered for consistent, high-volume production. Each conveyor system is engineered for seamless integration into your facility and optimized for maximum throughput. These systems provide significant advantages over batch ovens, particularly when uninterrupted processing is essential. The continuous flow of materials through the conveyor equipment—90% of which are belt conveyor ovens— 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 ± 3°F or better. This precision is critical for applications where strict heating specifications are necessary to ensure the quality of the processed parts. Multi-zoned configurations enable variable temperature profile, allowing precise heat treatment tailored to specific 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 such as overhead monorail, mesh belt, chain-on-edge, chain-on-flat, slats, baskets, trays, cable, and roller conveyors available. Horizon offers both continuous and indexing conveyor belt ovens, allowing flexibility in part movement through the system. They can be tailored in size and configurations to meet the requirements of even the largest substrates in the production line.

revolutionizing thermal processing with cyclone technology
Horizon's patented Cyclone Technology is a game-changer for the industrial conveyor oven, 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:
Eliminating traditional interior ductwork reduces airflow resistance. Enhanced insulation and extra-thick welded plate walls retain heat, lowering operating costs by minimizing heat loss through the oven walls. -
High-Efficiency Airflow:
Optimized heat transfer via high-volume, low-pressure airflow results in shorter process times and potentially smaller ovens. -
Smart Controls:
Advanced control systems with PLCs and variable frequency drives enable precise temperature and fan adjustments to match changing production loads. -
Reversible Air Recirculation:
Delivers uniform heat distribution, improving processing for sensitive products. -
Reduced Motor Horsepower:
Recirculation fans require 75–80% less horsepower, significantly cutting electricity use.
