Walking beam furnaces for billet preheating

By using electric heating in walking beam furnaces, steel manufacturers can significantly reduce the amount of energy needed to preheat billets and reduce CO2 emissions to zero.

Multilayer ceramic capacitors

Manufacturing of multilayer ceramic capacitors requires several heat intensive processes. Casting, binding and sintering are common processes in this industry which pose their own challenges. For Powder metal sintering and ferrite sintering, the furnace which material passes through is a

Carburizing of automotive parts

Electrical heating elements, SER burners and other heating technology products for carburizing furnaces.

Casting of automotive parts

Electric heating elements and prefabricated heating modules for casting of for example aluminium, magnesium and steel.

Commercial applications

Our resistive materials can be used for commercial applications similar to home appliances. Rather than low powered, smaller units, heating elements can be scalled for large applications such as office buildings, highrises, and and more. Similar to white goods, these larger scale applications

White goods

White goods are household ammenities used which are typically larger than simply appliances. These are higher powered and typically use our material for resistive heating. The Kanthal® offering is commonly found in white goods for: Refrigerators Dishwashers Washing machines home heating

Industrial ceramics

While ceramics can be thought of as decorative tableware, there are many functional applications that can be found using ceramics. Many different industries seek out this material because of its thermal, electrical, and even optical properties. The Kanthal® offering supports the industrial

Consumer ceramics

The consumer ceramics application can range from small to large across many different diciplines. We supply material from pottery kilns to casting furnaces and everything in between. We have supported many different applications with both the Kanthal® and Nikrothal® grade alloys. For

Electric Vehicle Battery Production

Electric vehicles require many battery packs in order to run long distances. One important component of these batteries in current technology is the cathode material which must be produced at high temperatures. As with all industrial high-temperature production processes, the challenge for

Rolling furnace

Secondary aluminium processing requires further forming of hot material. This can include pressing or shaping to get the desired size. In order to keep the material in a formable shape, it is important to remain at high temperatures throughout the process. The Kanthal portfolio has been in
