Case hardening

Whereas conventional case hardening causes gradual wear and tear, Kanthal® AF and Kanthal® APM radiant tubes have been proven to stand the test of time. Furthermore, the electrification of the case-hardening process reduces emissions and minimizes energy losses. Case hardening is a

Lithium-ion battery production

The production of cathode material requires temperatures of around 800 to 1,000 degrees Celsius in the calcination process. Also, the manufacturing process has to be designed and controlled to ensure exceptionally high purity levels in the cathode materials. As with all industrial

Preheating

Preheating is the process of bringing material up to a certain temperature before further processing. This can be done to remove water in the material (aluminum processing) or to prevent large temperature gradients between the furnace and material. The main purpose for pre-heating parts used

Laboratory furnace

The Kanthal program includes several products used in small laboratories and many times seen in dental sintering furnaces. For smaller batch furnaces used in laboratories, the heat treatment typically involves sintering or enameling material. ​Earlier dental furnaces used large diameter (Ø54mm)

General engineering

Furnaces

The Kanthal® portfolio includes products for both electrically heated furnaces and gas heated furnaces. We also provide Kanthal® Services expertise if you need additional engineering expertise or to optimise existing systems.

Temperature measurement

Kanthal® material can not only be used to generate heat, but it can also be used as a method of measurement. Our materials are used in thermostatic components and thermal measurement.

Process heating

The process manufacturing industry relies on process heating to make their goods or serivces. When it comes to electric heating, this primarily utilises resistance heating through radiative systems to process material. While there are countless applications, we have highlighted a few for you to

Energy saving and sustainable applications

Electrification of process heating is not only more energy efficient than fossil alternatives but it also provides a cleaner and safer environment for production employees. Explore more about applications which help us build a more sustainable future.

Thermostatic components

Resistance heating wire for in a wide range of alloys for use in thermostatic components.
