Abstract
Conveyor belt sintering furnaces presently used in iron powder metallurgy (PM) are classified, compared and contrasted according to their design features. If furnaces vary in their design but have comparable output capacities, the consumption of power, atmosphere gases, etc. as well as the finite operating cost per kilogram of sintered product are discussed. It is shown that the lowest operating cost is achieved by using conveyor belt furnaces which incorporate de-waxing zones which are heated by the protective gas issuing from the electrically heated sintering zone, the protective gas itself being produced by catalytic generation within the body of the furnace.
