Billet Heater - Type 'EBS'

The EBS medium-frequency billet heater is used for the heating of steel billets (ferromagnetic and austenitic qualities) and non-ferrous metals.

The heated billets leave the coil in the desired operating cycle over a fast take-off roller table with a chute or they are removed from the last coil by a robot or by automatic tongs and fed to a defined position before transfer into the forging machine.

The advantages at a glance:

• automatic operation in a specified working sequence
• high availability
• low space requirement, compact design
• fast operating readiness due to short heating-up times, hence less scale layer
• simple operation
• reproducible operating results due to the possibility of setting accurate plant data
• exact temperature control, therefore high dimensional accuracy of forged parts and extremely good tool service lives
• high efficiency, no energy required during longer operating breaks
• no heat stress on the operating personnel
• smoothly adjustable speed of the billet transport
• simply mechanical conveying principle
• the shortest possible conversion times to other billet dimensions by means of fast coil changing equipment
