Batch Ovens—Flexible, Heavy‑Duty Curing for Powder & Liquid Finishes
When your production mix demands versatility, GAT’s industrial batch ovens deliver uniform cure profiles for everything from small weldments to 25‑ft structural frames—without the footprint of a conveyor line.
Why Choose a GAT Batch Oven?
Advantage | Engineering Detail | User Benefit |
---|---|---|
Rugged Construction | 18-gauge aluminized steel, 6-in. mineral-wool insulation, 2,000 °F ceramic seals | Decades of service in harsh powder shops |
Wide Temp Range | 150–500 °F standard; 650 °F high-temp option | Cure polyesters, hybrids, epoxies, urethanes & wet paint |
Direct-Impingement Airflow | Top & side plenums with adjustable louvers | < ±5 °F temp uniformity, faster ramp times |
NFPA-Compliant Gas Trains | Maxon burners, leak-test valves, flame supervision | Meets OSHA & insurance requirements out of the crate |
Modular Panel Design | 12-in. tongue-and-groove sections | Expand length or height as product mix evolves |
Quick-Ship Models | 6×6×8 ft to 10×10×20 ft standard | Install & cure parts in as little as 6 weeks |
The GAT Difference

Made of 18 ga. galv. steel and 4 lb. density mineral wool, these panels lower operating costs, up to standard and offer better working conditions around the oven
Allows for mounting C/P on the heater with virtually no field wiring (lowers cost and risk; no need for electrician)
Our vented door design effectively dissipates heat
Uniform airflow and temperature via dual duct design
Wider than competitor panels with 45% fewer seams, which increases efficiency
Grows along with your needs
Saves you time and money
During the first year of ownership GAT will make sure that everything was installed and built correctly

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the oven run wet paint & powder?
Yes—simply program separate ramp‑hold recipes for each coating.
What power & gas are required?
Standard models: 480 V / 3‑phase / 60 Hz, natural gas 2–5 psi; other utilities on request.
How do you ship large ovens?
Panels knock down to skid-size; reassemble with cam‑lock hardware – no welding.
