St d d Furnaces & O Standard F Ovens since 1918 LADLES Definition: A ladle is a mobile muffle in refractory steel provided with an inert gas inlet. The muffle is designed to be placed in a chamber furnace with the parts themselves arranged in the muffle. It is then possible to work with protective gas. Construction: The muffle is parallelepiped-shaped (with one hinged face closing by gravity), with a gas inlet (which also serves as a handle) and a mobile floor grid system on which the parts are placed. The mobile floor makes it easy to transfer the parts from the muffle to the quenching tank. Heating: The maximum temperature withstood by the muffles is 1100°C. Our muffles are available with our chamber furnaces for 1100°C, or 1200°C for more intensive use. Type of gas: Working with non-flammable gas (nitrogen, forming gas 95-5 etc.). Pneumatics: Our muffles are fitted with a valve to regulate the air supply and a flexible pipe. Photos for illustration purposes only ITEM CODE Specifications subject to change
