OTHER THERMAL PROCESSES & OVENS

  1. Chemical Processing

    : Refers to the use of controlled heating environments to facilitate chemical reactions, alter material properties, or process substances in industries such as pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, electronics, and advanced materials.

  2. Burn off or Clean Out

    : Also referred to as "thermal cleaning" or "pyrolysis" cleaning, removes contaminants like grease, paint, or organic materials through high-temperature incineration.

  3. Carbonization

    : Sometimes called "pyrolysis", converts organic materials to carbon by heating in a low-oxygen environment.

  4. Chemical Processing

    : Refers to the use of controlled heating environments to facilitate chemical reactions, alter material properties, or process substances in industries such as pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, electronics, and advanced materials.

  5. Dehydrating

    : More commonly termed "drying", this thermal processing removes moisture from products like textiles, pharmaceuticals, ceramics, and food products.

  1. Descaling

    : Sometimes called "scale removal" or "oxide removal", breaks down hazardous organic compounds into harmless byproducts.

  2. Foam Expansion

    : Also called "foaming" or "polymer expansion", processes materials like polyurethane to achieve desired shapes and densities.

  3. Gas or Vapor Phase Coating

    : Process used to deposit thin layers of material onto a substrate using chemical or physical vapor techniques. It includes processes like "chemical vapor deposition (CVD)" or "physical vapor deposition (PVD)."

  4. Hardening

    : Also referred to as a "heat treating" or "case hardening" process, increases the hardness and wear resistance of metals through heat and quenching.

  5. Heat Shrinking

    : Refers to a process also known as "thermal contraction" where heat is applied to a material, causing it to shrink in size and conform tightly to the shape of the object it covers.

  1. Hot Forming

    : Process where metals or other materials are heated to a specific temperature to become malleable, enabling them to be shaped or formed into desired structures. Sometimes it's called "hot working" or "thermal forming".

  2. Material Testing

    : The process of subjecting materials to controlled heating conditions to assess their properties, performance, and behavior. Depending on the test, this may include "thermal analysis" or "stress testing."

  3. Normalizing

    : Normalizing or "thermal normalizing" refines the grain structure of steel and other alloys to enhance mechanical properties.

  4. Quenching

    : Process, occasionally called "rapid cooling", used in metalworking to rapidly cool a material, typically metal or alloy, after it has been heated to a specific temperature.

  5. Reflow Soldering

    : Melts solder paste to create electrical connections on circuit boards

  1. Sintering

    : Bonds powder materials into a solid mass using heat. When metals are involved in the sintering process, it is also known as "powder metallurgy".

  2. Sterilization & Heat Sanitization

    : Uses high heat to kill bacteria and microorganisms, often for medical or food applications.

  3. Thermal Oxidation

    : Also known as "oxidative degradation" or simply "oxidation", this thermal process breaks down hazardous organic compounds into harmless byproducts.

  4. Thermal Shock Testing

    : Known as "thermal cycling" in some testing environments, this process subjects materials or components to specific temperatures for testing their durability.

  5. Vulcanization

    : Also called a "rubber curing process", strengthens rubber materials through controlled heat application.
