GRIFLAM gas flame burners and automated systems for heating, straightening and hardening
Country: Germany · Model: GRIFLAM
GRIFLAM gas flame burners and automated heating systems cover process temperatures from 200 °C for aluminium alloys to 2200 °C for quartz glass. Each burner is built for a specific gas, workpiece geometry and required flame power. The equipment is used for preheating before welding and cutting, straightening and normalizing steel, hardening, hard soldering and pipe heating.

Description
The range includes handles, barrels and injectors, heating inserts, fork, row and ring burners, separate hardening burners, gas supply systems, ignition and monitoring devices, and accessories. The work covers the full cycle from concept and calculation to manufacture, installation, commissioning and staff training. An automated system consists of individually calculated main burners and a pilot burner that ignites automatically and is monitored by a built-in electrode. An optional UV sensor shuts off the gas as soon as the flame goes out, and a pyrometer measures temperature continuously and switches the burner on and off by itself. Less typical tasks include flame cleaning (flame washing), forming of copper and aluminium alloys, and melting and forming of quartz glass.
How to choose
The burner is chosen by material, final temperature, heating depth, process time and the gas available at the plant, mixed with oxygen, compressed air or drawn-in air. The catalogue guide values are 400 °C for preheating steel before welding and cutting, 600–700 °C for heat treatment of copper, soldering and straightening of steel, and 850–1000 °C for hardening and forming of steel. If you need manual heating with replaceable inserts and no automation, it is simpler to take the STAR 1000/1010/2020 handles from the STARCUT / STAR / STARLET / MINITHERM range.

FAQ
What gas to oxygen ratio do GRIFLAM burners need?
According to the catalogue, propane is mixed with oxygen at 1:3.75, methane 1:1.6, acetylene 1:1.1 and hydrogen 1:0.36. The mixture composition determines its sensitivity to flashback.
What maximum flame temperature do different gases give with oxygen?
Hydrogen with oxygen gives 3080 °C, acetylene 3030 °C, methane 2860 °C and propane 2850 °C. The working process temperatures in the range are much lower, within 200–2200 °C.
How can a GRIFLAM heating system be integrated into an existing production line?
The control cabinet is built on SIEMENS and connected to the line via PROFINET or analog signals. The gas control panel is designed for the specific burner system.
Are GRIFLAM burners suitable for working with quartz glass?
Yes, melting and forming of quartz glass is one of the applications of the range, with a process temperature of 1800–2200 °C. The burner for such a task is calculated separately for the gas and the shape of the product.
