They are furnaces that allow the billets used in aluminum extrusion plants to be annealed at 580 °C in order not to break or crack during extrusion pressing and to distribute the alloying elements in it homogeneously throughout every inner/outer structure of the billet. Annealing time varies depending on billet diameter, ambient temperature and operating conditions.
In summary, aluminum Homogenizing furnaces are used to improve the mechanical strength and structure of aluminum billets before extrusion.
