Integrated Cooling for Tunnel Furnaces Accelerated Process Stabilization
For tunnel furnaces, KEKPA provides fully integrated dynamic cooling sections, combining:
- high-efficiency heat exchangers,
- forced-air or cross-flow blowers,
- roller conveyor drive systems,
- multi-zone cooling control.
These systems accelerate the cooling stage of continuous thermal processes, reducing waiting time, stabilizing temperature gradients and increasing overall throughput.The dynamic airflow combined with i ntensive heat-exchange surfaces ensures stable exit temperatures — essential for automotive and industrial lines requiring high precision and repeatability.
Static Cooling Chambers for Chamber Furnaces
For batch processes, we design static cooling chambers engineered to rapidly and uniformly lower product temperatures after heat treatment.
These chambers are compatible with all KEPKA chamber furnaces and can be configured as:
Water-chilled cooling chambers
with internal heat exchangers powered by multi-section chillers.
Forced-air cooling chambers
with controlled airflows, directional nozzles and thermal stabilization control. Static chambers ensure faster batch exchange, predictable cooling curves and safer handling conditions — especially for metals, alloys, technical ceramics and polymer moulding fixtures.
Summary
KEPKA Advanced Cooling combines multi-section chiller architecture, dynamic and static cooling solutions, 0°C water temperature capability, and integrated tunnel and chamber cooling modules to create a complete thermal-management ecosystem.
Whether the goal is accelerated cooling, dimensional stabilization, or continuous-temperature control, these systems guarantee reliability, performance and uninterrupted operation.
Water Temperatures Down to 0°C Precise Thermal Conditioning
Our chillers supply industrial-grade chilled water at 0°C, ensuring maximum thermal performance in high-demand cooling environments.
Cooling chambers for tunnel and chamber systems operate at 3°C internal air temperature, supported by:
- large-area heat-exchange surfaces,
- dynamic airflow systems,
- stable pressure zones,
- real-time temperature monitoring.
This combination enables precise material stabilization after heating — crucial for metals, aluminum components, battery-cooling pipes, technical polymers and thermoformed parts.
Engineering Built for Harsh Conditions
KEPKA cooling units are engineered for continuous industrial use with:
- reinforced compressors and refrigerant systems;
Each system can operate in closed-loop integration with KEPKA furnaces, enabling unified thermal management across the entire process line.
