Gas-fired furnace data.
For strip plants requiring stable speed, low energy consumption and lower fuel and electricity use. This furnace route is suitable when natural gas or LPG is the preferred heating source and the production target fits a 15-45 m/min standard-speed line.
AKS evaluates combustion efficiency, insulation, heat recovery, strip width, thickness, annealing temperature and atmosphere before confirming the gas-fired configuration. The project discussion also covers utility conditions and the plant's method for tracking fuel cost per coil.
