A tunnel oven is a type of industrial oven designed for the continuous heat treatment of products as they move through a tunnel-like chamber on a conveyor belt. This method allows for efficient heating, drying, or baking of a wide range of products.
The oven applies heat evenly across the conveyor line, with the heat source—either gas or electricity—ensuring consistent treatment of the products at a steady pace. This process is crucial in various manufacturing industries for achieving precise temperature control and uniform product quality.
Common applications include baking bread and cakes in the food industry, as well as drying paint and curing resin in industrial manufacturing. Tunnel ovens enhance productivity and product quality through their efficient operation. They are available in single-chamber and multi-chamber configurations, with the former being appreciated for its simplicity and cost efficiency, and the latter offering the ability to adjust temperatures and humidity levels across different chambers to accommodate diverse product requirements.
