Reverberatory or Sklenar-Type Furnace is a versatile industrial furnace primarily used for the melting and refining of metals, especially in non-ferrous metal processing. In this type of furnace, heat is radiated from the furnace roof and reflected onto the charge, rather than being directly applied, which allows for even heating of the material. This design is especially beneficial for melting metals like copper, lead, and aluminum, as it prevents direct contact with the fuel source, reducing contamination. Reverberatory furnaces offer efficient temperature control, enabling precise melting and refining processes, while their large capacity makes them suitable for high-volume operations. They are widely used in industries such as foundries, smelting plants, and recycling facilities for metal production and alloying.
