Clean Process Ovens
Clean Process Ovens are vital for advanced manufacturing in the medical technology space, and Furnace Engineering is proud to partner with customers in this area. The ovens pictured here are used for medical device manufacturing. Operating at over 200˚C with very tight temperature uniformity, the ovens incorporate HEPA filtration, robotic loading/unloading and traceability of parts handled. With this design focus was placed on ease of maintenance, and our innovative conveyor system enables fast disassembly for routine cleaning, thus maximising production uptime.
