Oven Chamber Sizes
Despatch ovens offer an almost unlimited amount of application possibilities to meet any of your
batch-processing requirements. Their industrial ovens are categorized by their chamber sizes:
- Cabinet ovens and furnaces (Reach-in ovens): These compact electric or gas
ovens are
ideal for lower-production manufacturing. Designed for easy loading and unloading, they're
versatile for a
variety of processes.
- Laboratory Ovens or Benchtop Ovens: Small yet mighty, these ovens find
their niche in
laboratory, testing, or low-production environments.

processing
capabilities to new heights.
Processes Performed by Despatch
Ovens and
Furnaces:
Despatch has a wide range of ovens and furnaces that are available for curing, powder coating,
dehydrating,
drying, heat shrinking, pre-heating, testing and many other thermal processing applications,
including:
Annealing: a heat treatment process used mostly to increase the ductility and
reduce the
hardness of a material. It is most commonly used for treating metals, but other materials,
including glass
and plastics can also be annealed.
During the annealing process the metal, plastic or glass is heated to a specific temperature or
color and
then the material is cooled at a controlled, specified rate. This process changes the physical
and chemical
properties of the material to make it more malleable or improve ductility; providing stress
relief and
creating a new microstructure.
Heat treating: the heating and cooling of metals and alloys to achieve a desired
physical
and mechanical property such as strength, hardness, and resistance to fatigue or failure.
Choosing a Despatch oven or furnace will ensure you that temperature uniformity will be well
within
specification. Despatch ovens feature high-velocity uniflow airflow, meaning that the air moves
both
horizontally and vertically, offering exceptional temperature uniformity. Adjustable louvers
direct heated
air for a precise airflow pattern suited to specific parts.
Stress Relieving: reduces internal stresses caused by cold working or
non-uniform cooling.
Aging: also referred to as precipitation hardening increases the hardness and
strength of
metal alloys. Both timing and temperature are critical during the hardening process. Uneven
heating can
create cracks and other defects, often starting from the corners or edges of the material.
Tempering: a process used to reduce the brittleness and increase the tensile
strength of
metal alloys after hardening.
Coatings: Once cured, the powder coating creates a tough, durable finish that is
generally
harder and stronger than any conventional paint finish.
