Airtorch™ Applications 1

Aluminum Brazing
Scorching/Burn off/Curing
The Airtorch™ has opened up new possibilities in brazing and joining technologies. Whereas in the past brazing furnaces were cumbersome and expensive, Airtorch™ allows for inexpensive processes.
aluminum brazing
The Airtorch™ can be used for curing, surface burning and sealing operations. The possibilities are endless as Air, Nitrogen, Helium and Argon can be used.
scorching/burn off/curing
Large Die Heating
Direct Ceramic Drying
The Airtorch™ allows large die heat-up; reclaim dies and aluminum.


large die heating
Free and bonded water can be easily removed. The Airtorch™ can achieve very high temperatures without contamination, therefore direct drying is a natural application. MHI also manufactures several Airtorch™ Continuous ovens.
direct ceramic drying
Binder Burn Off
Heating for Tensile Testing
Easy, uniform, safe, and collectable binder burn off. For ceramics, nitrides, powder metals, etc. Substantially improve quality and productivity.
binder burn off
When high temperatures are needed in spaces where resistance heating elements cannot be used, the Airtorch™ provides the solution.

Packaging or Sealing
Die Heating
Designed for long life and high temperatures, the non-contaminating Airtorch™ is an ideal solution for inline packaging or sealing processes.
packaging or sealing
Use the Airtorch™ as a preheating device for dies in the metal forging and rolling industries.

Soldering, Melting and Dental

Use the Airtorch™ for softening, soldering, and melting of precious metals and glass. This feature is very applicable to the dental, jewelry, and glass industries. Use for rapid glazing, burnout and quick melts.

 

 

Special Convective Ovens are also available.
Ideal for moving parts(debind, degrease, remove paint, etc.)
