A fixed furnace usually consists of a
rectangular box made from heat resistant
materials in which are embedded electric
resistance elements.
Furnaces such as these are often capable of
heating to 1200C and can normalise and
anneal as well as stress relieve.
They often have fixed thermocouples that
measure the furnace atmosphere temperature
and not the temperature of the article being
heat treated.
