R&D, design, production and quality control consolidated with many years of outstanding experience. You can find our products everywhere heat treatment takes place.

Tempering

Tempering

The furnaces of the model series AK with useful chamber size 30 – 600 liters with max. temperature of 950 °C are equipped with a strong circulation blower. Due to the circulation blower a fast warming an uniform temperature distribution is reached. AK furnaces of LHT are used for annealing, tempering and glowing. Special sizes up to several cubic meters of useful chamber are possible. The optional gas purging and housing of the outer insulation layers enable an extensive elimination of a scaling.

For sensitive materials the annealing and tempering is carried out in protective gas furnaces.

Therefore LHT protective gas furnaces of the model series VMK-S, useful chamber 2,6 – 15 liters and KS-S, useful chamber 70 – 460 liters are suitable. In both model series you can work up to temperatures above 1050 °C with protective gas. Mainly it is held under forming gas with hydrogen content < 5 % and with oxidation-sensitive building components with 100 % hydrogen or cracked gas. For latter the furnaces will be equipped with standard options gassing unit, burning-off device and safety package.

Additive Manufacturing (Rapid Prototyping, Rapid Tooling, 3D printing): Especially smaller sizes like AK 30 and AK 40 on air and VMK-S/Vac are used for tempering of additive manufactured parts by 3-D printers.

 

The optimization of production lines it is often necessary to work in continuous furnaces. Linn manufactures therefore small and medium size continuous belt furnaces up to 1150 °C.

The furnaces of the model series HK with useful chamber size 30 – 600 liters with max. temperatures of 1200 °C (optionally 1300 °C for high speed steels) are used for hardening, normalizing and other heat treatments. Special sizes up to several cubic meters of useful chamber are possible. The optional gas purging and housing of the outer insulation layers enable an extensive elimination of a scaling.

For the inductive hardening Linn produces high and middle frequency generators. The standard power range for the high frequency units are between 1.2 – 10 kW, special designs up to 100 kW. Middle frequency generators are built as standard units from 10 kW to 200 kW and max. up to 1000 kW. Inductors and quenching showers are also manufactured by LHT.

Automated units e. g. for hardening of waves is also included in the delivery program of LHT.
