Pusher-Type Billet Reheating Furnace for Steel Rolling Mills – High-Efficiency Industrial Heating Solution
JIANGSU YINUO THERMAL ENERGY TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD builds Pusher-Type Billet Reheating Furnaces for steel plants running modern production lines. Output reaches 200 t/h. Heat stays in the 1150–1250°C band, and a tonne of steel burns roughly 1.1 GJ of energy. Dual-regenerative combustion sits at the core of the design, and the burners take more than one fuel type. Structural steel, low-alloy steel and carbon steel all pass through these units. Work happens on a 20,000㎡ production site. Fixed assets there come to 80 million yuan. Over 100 technical professionals staff the operation.
Charging and discharging layouts stay open to change. Billets can go in at the end and come out at the side, and cantilever roller systems are also available. Your rolling mill keeps its current setup. The furnace fits into it without a rebuild.

Why Choose Our Industrial Reheating System?
Billet temperature has to hold steady once you run a continuous steel line. Product quality depends on it. Our pusher furnaces solve this with counter-flow heat exchange. Hot flue gases travel one way while the billets move the other. Thermal efficiency goes up as a result.
Investment costs come in lower than they do with other systems. Build times get shorter too, because the mechanical design is simpler. Performance standards still hold. Our engineers refined every part, so the unit keeps running through demanding production schedules.
Blast furnace gas is one option. The furnace also runs on mixed gas. Producer gas and natural gas work too. You pick the fuel. That means the unit matches the energy setup already in your plant. Market prices shift. With a multi-fuel design you can respond fast. Fuel costs stay lower.

Core Advantages for Your Production Line
Simplified Operation and Maintenance
Operators learn the controls quickly. Little specialized training is required. The mechanical pusher has fewer moving parts than walking beam designs do. So it runs reliably. Maintenance comes around less often. Fewer spare parts sit on your shelf too.
Shorter Installation Timeline
Speed to production matters in capital projects. Site work goes faster with modular construction on our Pusher-Type Billet Reheating Furnace systems. Compared with complex furnace setups, commissioning takes much less time. Downtime during your upgrade stays lower as a result.
Versatile Steel Grade Processing
Standard billets go into our heating chambers. Special shapes do as well. They handle many sizes. Various metallurgical needs are covered too. Structural steel poses no problem. Low-alloy steel is fine. Carbon steel is reliable and works well. Thermal profiles stay consistent.
Advanced Combustion Technology
Your efficiency targets point to the right setup. Some plants go with dual-regenerative air-gas systems. Others run single-regenerative air systems. Conventional recuperative combustion is a third option. Any of them holds temperature precisely in the preheating, heating, and soaking zones.

Comprehensive Engineering Support for Pusher-Type Billet Reheating Furnace
Support runs across the full project. It starts at the first design step and goes through commissioning. Mechanical engineers sit on the team. So do automatic control specialists. Quality inspection professionals are part of it too. All of them work together on custom solutions.
Furnace design is ours to handle. So are manufacturing and installation. Project management comes with the package. One team covers all of it. That setup removes the hassle of coordinating several vendors. Your heating system will meet the spec from day one.
Before shipment, every furnace gets a strict inspection. National and industry standards guide those checks. Our quality management system confirms the Pusher-Type Billet Reheating Furnace structure is sound. It looks at how the refractory was installed. Combustion efficiency is measured. Control system functions are tested too. Each step follows documented test protocols.
FAQ
Q: What billet dimensions can your pusher furnace accommodate?
A: Common billet sizes from rolling mills are covered by our standard designs. Special dimensions can be customized. Hearth length and width are matched to your production profile. Material flow stays efficient as a result.
Q: While the steel heats up, what keeps scale loss in check?
A: Hearth pressure gets watched the whole time. Air-fuel ratios are tuned to suit. Oxidation stays low. Bring the atmosphere under control and set the temperature profile, and you get less scale than conventional heating methods leave behind.
Q: Can the furnace run on more than one type of fuel?
A: Yes. Our dual-fuel burner setups let you choose. You can use natural gas or blast furnace gas. Pick whichever is cheaper or easier to get at the time. Switch from one to the other, and the heating performance stays the same.
Q: How often will maintenance be needed?
A: Day to day upkeep means you check the pusher mechanism, keep an eye on the refractory, and clean out the burner system. Run it the right way and the big refractory rebuilds tend to land every 5-8 years. How hard you push production can move that window.
Q: Can the furnace talk to the automation already running in my mill?
A: Yes. Our units work with Level 2 automation and speak the standard industrial protocols. Temperature control, pusher sequencing, and fuel management all sit with your mill control systems, so production stays in sync.
