Insulated modules for use as furnace liners or the like may be manufactured by accumulating a plurality of generally rectangular battens of similar size and, after arranging them edgewise in side-by-side relationship to define a generally rectangular pad of insulation material, bringing the rectangular pad of insulation material and a rigid or flexible substrate into assembly in the presence of an adhesive material such as an air dryed grout and allowing the grout to cure. Edge battens of fibrous insulation material may also be secured by adhesive to the exposed edges of the pad/block substrate assembly and may cooperate therewith to define the insulation module. A wrapper of protective material may be disposed at least partially about the insulation module. A machine for manufacturing the insulation modules may provide for an accumulation of stacked elongated layers of insulation material that may be transported linearly to severing apparatus that severs the stacked layers of insulation material longitudinally and also sever the stacked layers transversely at equal increments, thereby defining a plurality of insulation pads composed of arranged battens of insulation material, which pads are transported to a module assembly station subsequent to the severing operation. |
