An industrial furnace is a heat-treating system that assists in melting or heating metals at a high temperature. It comprises a refractory chamber, hearth, burner, solid, liquid, or gaseous fuel or electricity, chimney, charging and discharging doors, and loading and unloading equipment. It is mainly utilized for annealing, tempering, or carburizing and pre-treating materials for forging purposes. Besides this, as it is fuel-efficient, compact, and portable, it is also employed in the manufacturing of iron, steel, non-ferrous metals, ceramic and calcination in cement across the globe.

Industrial Furnaces Market Trends:

At present, there is a significant increase in the demand for iron, steel and metals worldwide. This represents one of the key factors impelling the market growth. Apart from this, industrial furnaces are widely utilized in the manufacturing and heat-treating of metallic automotive parts. As a result, the rising sales of automobiles across the globe on account of inflating income levels and increasing global population are supporting the market. Furthermore, there is a considerable rise in the adoption of state-of-the-art technologies and the industrial internet of things (IoT) for providing enhanced efficiency and automation. This, in confluence with the rising adoption of numerous strategies for furnace energy conservation, productivity, and reduction of pollutant emissions, is creating a favorable market outlook. These strategies include the utilization of natural gas, improved insulation and refractory materials. They also involve the usage of advanced burner designs, such as high velocity, regenerative and recuperative burners, along with new combustion technologies like air and fuel staging and flue gas recirculation techniques. The market is also driven by the expanding automotive and steel sector and the extensive investments in construction activities around the world.
