Process Ovens

Convection Ovens

Our GAT Convection Ovens are designed to accommodate virtually any size of part, finishing type (powder or liquid coat), and environment (indoor or outdoor applications). We take great pride in designing and producing the right type of convection ovens to meet your manufacturing needs. While all of our Convection Ovens qualify as Dry-Off or Cure ovens, we can build any type of Elevated, Outdoor, and Industrial convection ovens you need.

The GAT Difference

Sturdy Ductwork

18-gauge galvannealed steel with a 12-gauge internal frame makes up the floor-mounted ductwork

6" insulated panel

6" thick steel encased 4# density batt mineral wool insulated panels provided in four-foot widths

High-Velocity Air Seals

Allows ovens to operate more efficiently due to lowered exhaust rates and reduction of heat loss.

4' Wide Panels

Present 45% fewer seams, thereby reducing through steel and increasing efficiency.

Custom Heater Sizes

Factory Built and tested heater assembly. Custom designed for BTU and CFM output required for any job.

Less Through Steel

Spot welded and clip assembled design allows for 20x less through steel than our competitors resulting in a decreased thermal footprint and reduced gas bills.

VFD Exhaust Fans

Allows quick purge and optimal oven exhaust rating for efficient and continuous operation. Ultimately allows for more production hours per day.

Features/Benefits

Feature

Direct air impingement along with heated air.

Benefit

Dries the part more effectively

Feature

18-gauge galvannealed steel with a 12-gauge internal frame makes up the floor-mounted ductwork.

Benefit

Sturdy build capable of taking on any workload for decades of service

Feature

Top mounted, adjustable louvers allow for direct air impingement on the part

Benefit

Movement at the part is maximized and moisture is removed quickly. Minimizes the potential for flash rusting.

Feature

Directed air streams = reduced drying temperatures

Benefit

Operating energy costs are decreased significantly

Feature

Six-inch-thick steel encased 4# density batt mineral wool insulated panels provided in four-foot widths

Benefit

Four-foot-wide panels present 45% fewer seams, thereby increasing efficiency.

Feature

High-velocity air-seals

Benefit

Minimize the heated air in the oven escaping to the surrounding atmosphere, and to insure the optimum efficient operation of the oven.

Feature

Edges of dry-off oven panels are arranged to fit in tongue-and-groove

Benefit

Provides a tight seal that also allows for thermal expansion

Feature

Dry-off oven panels uses an isolated spreader clip and stiffener channel construction

Benefit

Greatly reduce the amount of through steel to increase efficiency as well as to provide added strength

Feature

Gas-fired modulating burner controlled via a UL, FM, and NFPA compliant gas train

Benefit

Safer, more efficient burner usage

Feature

Dry-Off oven panels are sheathed inside and out with 18-gauge galvannealed steel - reinforced with stiffening ribs spaced on 12-inch centers

Benefit

Stronger frame for longer-lasting production

Feature

Conveyor openings through the side of the dry off oven

Benefit

High-velocity air seals are provided to minimize the heated air in the oven escaping to the surrounding atmosphere

Feature

High air turnover along with floor mounted ductwork

Benefit

Ensures even temperature throughout the cure oven

Feature

Seams are fully insulated with the same insulation material as the oven panels. Construction of oven panel is entirely spot welded

Benefit

Smooth surface inside and out.

Feature

Centrally located thermocouple

Benefit

Designed for best temp distribution and takes the guesswork out of oven temperature and efficacy

Feature

VFD on exhaust fans allows quick purge and optimal oven exhaust rating for efficient and continuous operation

Benefit

Meets and exceeds NFPA requirement and gives more hours out of the day for production

Feature

1/20th of the linear feet of through steel

Benefit

Provides lowest heat signature in the industry, reduces gas bill, and saves money over time

Convection Oven Types

Dry-Off/ Cure

All Convection Ovens designed and developed by GAT are classified as Dry-Off/Cure ovens with various adjustments to meet a specific manufacturing need. Whether you have a liquid or powder finish, our Dry-Off/Cure Ovens are custom designed to fit your space, match your speed, and accommodate any size of manufactured parts.

Elevated

Do you need an optimized design for your convection oven? Our elevated convection ovens come with side mount or underslung heater locations with conveyor openings through the bottom of the cure to remove any need for seals. The increased efficiency makes our elevated convection ovens a popular choice.

Outdoor

OEM companies ask us for the biggest space saver: outdoor convection ovens. This places the BTU and heat signature outside the plant in a weatherproof design capable of keeping the wind and snow at bay. Our GAT engineering team can factor in additional concrete and trench work to fit your manufacturing needs. There are some challenges when it comes to outdoor convection ovens, namely securing the right permits and initial purchase cost. The extra space you save is worth it over time with how easy and convenient outdoor convection ovens can be for production.
