Industrial vertical oven, paternoster oven, curing tower

ELMETHERM is a vertical oven manufacturer, who provides turnkey equipment for reduced floor spaces for your thermal applications from 40°C (100°F) to 350°C (660°F).

These equipments (vertical ovens, tower ovens) help you to minimize floor space while providing excellent temperature uniformity, reliable mechanics, low maintenance and easy access.

  • Loading and unloading
    Operations realized by robot, manipulator, conveyor or operator. Loading and unloading at one side or on two separate side of the oven. Internal or external loading and unloading stations.
  • Heating source
    Heating by gas burner or electrical resistances rack. Vertical oven can be divided into several heating zones with different temperatures. Vertical oven can integrate a cooling zone: natural cooling by ambient air or by fan blown convected air (with cooled air or ambient air).

Vertical oven, "stacked tray oven"

Vertical oven, "stacked tray oven"
Industrial oven with a vertical conveyor : the products are put on trays that are stacked into two tray piles; the stacked trays are conveyed vertically; lateral displacement for changing between tray stacks; conveying to and from the loading and unloading stations.
Extremely compact, this concept based on stacked trays enables to reach higher temperatures as the trays are displaced without any chain conveyors. All the mobile mechanical parts are located outside the heating zone.


Vertical oven, "paternoster" type

Vertical oven, "paternoster" type
Industrial oven with a vertical conveyor: the products are put on swing trays that are fixed on conveyor chains moving according a paternoster pattern.
Compact and proven thermprocess soution, the paternoster oven is an economical solution for numeruous industrial processes.


Vertical conveyor oven

Vertical conveyor oven

Two chain conveyors equipped with steel corners take in charge the trays with the products placed on them.
The first chain system ensures the conveying to the top; the second one to the bottom. Change of chain system realised by a shuttle located at the top of the oven.

Industrial applications

Our vertical ovens can be used for numeruous applications : polymerisation, drying, annealing, vulcanisation, curing, preheating, heat treatment, stabilisation, homogenizing, ageing.
