\n\tWisconsin Oven Corp., East Troy, Wis., has shipped three electrically heated, heavy-duty walk-in ovens with temperature uniformity of \u00b15\u00b0F for composite curing. The maximum temperature rating for each oven is 500\u00b0F, with chamber dimensions of 10x24x10 feet. The customer required guaranteed temperature uniformity of \u00b15\u00b0F at 150\u00b0F, 250\u00b0F, and 350\u00b0F, which was verified through a fifteen-point profile test conducted in an empty chamber under static operating conditions.<\/p>\n
\n\tThe composite curing ovens feature combination airflow to maximize heating rates and temperature uniformity. The oven bodies are constructed of tongue-and-groove panels that feature high-efficiency panel seams. These panels provide 25% better efficiency than standard panels.<\/p>\n
\n\t“For this project, our customer required guaranteed temperature uniformity,” says Jim Lucas, Senior Sales Engineer. “Now in use, the customer is very pleased with the consistent uniformity at all three temperature marks.”<\/p>\n
\n\tThese composite curing ovens include a reinforced insulated two-inch thick floor with wheel guides; a 35,000 CFM @ 25 HP recirculation blower; and one thermocouple check port and three vacuum ports on the side wall.<\/p>\n
\n\tThe combination airflow provides both horizontal and vertical upward airflow. The digital programmable temperature controller includes Ethernet communications, and the paperless chart recorder has four inputs.<\/p>\n
