FAQ

Q1: What is the maximum temperature of the tunnel oven?

A:The temperature range of standard electronic-grade tunnel ovens is generally from room temperature to 300°C. For special high-temperature processes, customized models can reach temperatures above 500°C.

Q2: How does the equipment ensure temperature uniformity inside the oven?

A:The equipment uses forced hot air circulation fans to create three-dimensional turbulent airflow inside the heating chamber, ensuring uniform heat distribution. The temperature difference between horizontal and vertical directions can generally be controlled within ±2°C to ±5°C.

Q3: What types of conveyor belts are available? Which one is commonly used?

A:Common conveyor belt options include:

Stainless steel mesh belt — Suitable for high-temperature applications and heavier products

PTFE (Teflon) mesh belt — Provides excellent non-stick performance and temperature resistance

Silicone conveyor belt — Suitable for products requiring gentle transport and surface protection

The selection depends mainly on product weight, processing temperature, and production requirements.

Q4: Does the equipment support dust-free and oxygen-free environments?

A:Yes. For advanced applications such as semiconductor and optical electronics manufacturing, the tunnel oven can be equipped with:

HEPA high-efficiency filtration systems

Nitrogen (N₂) atmosphere protection systems

to prevent oxidation and meet high cleanliness production requirements.

Q5: What maintenance is required during daily operation?

A:Regular maintenance includes:

Cleaning residual materials from the conveyor belt

Checking the operating condition of heating tubes

Calibrating thermocouple temperature sensors in each heating zone

Keeping the fan air inlet clean and unobstructed

Regular maintenance helps ensure stable heating performance and extends equipment service life.
