Energy Saving Aluminum Billet Heating Furnace
This aluminum billet heating furnace uses direct-fired spray heating technology to uniformly heat aluminum logs. The heating process is controlled across multiple independent zones, with each zone equipped with real-time temperature sensors for precise thermal management.
Key Features:
Fuel & Pressure: Runs on LPG at 5-8 Kpa (adjustable via pressure reducing valve), mixed with combustion air through a dedicated mixer
Automation: PLC-controlled system enables one-key automatic shearing, significantly reducing operator workload
Energy Efficiency: Low fuel consumption design minimizes operating costs
Heating Quality: High temperature control accuracy + small shear surface deformation of aluminum billets
User-Friendly: Simple equipment interface, easy to use and maintain
Customization: Flexible OEM/ODM services available – size and specifications can be customized to match your extrusion line requirements.
Delivery: Standard delivery 45-60 days for heating furnace (small-sized machines 30 days, whole production line 3-6 months). Shipping by land or ocean available.

Our aluminum billet heating furnace is engineered specifically for aluminum extrusion billet preheating, delivering uniform heat distribution across multi-zone temperature control zones. This direct-fired spray heating furnace uses LPG as fuel at 5-8 Kpa pressure (adjustable via pressure reducing valve), mixed with combustion air through a dedicated burner mixer.
The heating process is precisely managed across three independent zones, each equipped with real-time temperature sensors for ±5°C accuracy. This PLC-controlled billet heater enables one-key automatic shearing at the exit, significantly reducing operator workload while ensuring consistent billet temperature for extrusion.
Designed for energy efficiency, our aluminum rod heating furnace features low fuel consumption architecture that minimizes operating costs. The heating quality is reflected in high temperature control accuracy and minimal shear surface deformation of aluminum billets – critical factors for producing high-quality extruded profiles.
As an OEM/ODM manufacturer, we offer flexible customization of billet heating furnace size, specifications, and automation levels to match your specific extrusion line requirements. Standard delivery 45-60 days for heating furnace; LPG-fired, natural gas-fired options available. Contact EPS Aluminum today for a tailored quotation.

OEM/ODM Customization
Flexible customization of aluminum rod heating furnace size, specifications, and automation levels to match your existing extrusion line.
Q1: What is the typical heating temperature range for aluminum billets before extrusion?
A: Our aluminum billet heating furnace typically heats aluminum billets to 400-520°C (752-968°F) prior to extrusion, depending on the specific aluminum alloy and profile requirements. The multi-zone temperature control system ensures precise thermal management within ±5°C accuracy.
Q2: What fuel options are available for your billet heating furnace?
A: Our direct-fired spray heating furnace primarily runs on LPG at 5-8 Kpa, with natural gas-fired options also available. The pressure is adjustable via a pressure reducing valve, and fuel is mixed with combustion air through a dedicated burner mixer.
Q3: Can you customize the aluminum billet heating furnace size for my extrusion line?
A: Yes – we offer flexible OEM/ODM services for all our aluminum billet heating equipment. The size, specifications, billet diameter range, and automation level can be customized to match your specific extrusion line requirements.
Q4: How does the PLC automatic shearing system work?
A: Our PLC-controlled billet heater features one-key automatic shearing at the furnace exit. Once the billet reaches the preset temperature, the system automatically triggers the hot shear to cut the billet to the required length, with minimal shear surface deformation.
Q5: What is the standard delivery time for an aluminum billet heating furnace?
A: Standard delivery time is 45-60 days for a heating furnace (30 days for small-sized machines, 3-6 months for a complete extrusion line). Shipping is available by land or ocean.
Q6: Is your aluminum billet heating furnace energy efficient?
A: Yes – our furnace is designed with low fuel consumption architecture, achieving significant energy savings compared to conventional billet heating equipment. The combination of direct-fired spray heating and multi-zone temperature control optimizes fuel usage while maintaining heating quality.
