Surface Consistency in 400 Series Bright Annealing

A stainless steel bright annealing furnace focus for mills that process 409, 410 and 430 ferritic stainless steel strip and need repeatable bright surface quality.

Application fit

For projects where outlet strip appearance is the main quality signal.

The 400 series bright annealing furnace is designed for plants that want automatic temperature control, cooling stability and repeatable stainless steel bright annealing. It can be configured with gas or electric heating depending on plant utilities.

  • Automatic temperature control with HMI operation.
  • Cooling and atmosphere coordination for surface consistency.
  • Protective atmosphere routes for stainless steel bright annealing quality.
