Belt Conveyor Furnaces & Kilns

Harper’s belt and conveyor furnaces are designed for the continuous processing of parts as well as advanced materials such as granular, powder, or particulate aggregates in high purity and specialty atmosphere environments at temperatures up to 2000°C.

Harper'sr experience with a variety of belt materials, including mesh, strip, and chain, allows us to specify the exact design for your needs for an ideal thermal process solution. We consider the design of a conveyor furnace as a complete system, with the ability to incorporate integrated contol systems, gas treatment and handling, turnkey installation and complete field commissioning. Field service can incorporate control instrumentation integration and programming as well as process engineering optimization and support.
