Bring LIFE to Your Carburizing Operation with ECM
|
ECM brings LIFE to your carburizing operation with Low Impact Furnace Equipment that easily integrates into new or existing batch lines. Replace aging BIQ and SQF systems to increase production efficiency, improve repeatability and meet your green initiatives (minimize energy consumption, eliminate CO2 furnace emissions, secure operator safety/comfort, . . . ). ECM vacuum furnaces use cold-wall technology enabling higher temperature treatments while improving metallurgical properties and preventing intergranular oxidation (thanks to the absence of oxygen).

The Future of Sustainable Heat Treating
|
Multi-chamber designs offer significant advantages over traditional batch furnaces. Dedicated heating and cooling eliminates nozzle penetrations, reducing energy consumption and improving quench performance.
Maintaining temperature between cycles reduces cycle time, improves vacuum performance, eliminates thermal storage losses, and reduces thermal cycle wear. Continuous systems offer dramatic increases in throughput making the advantages of vacuum accessible to existing processes. As demand for efficiency intensifies, these systems offer solutions. It’s time to invest in tomorrow’s technology, today.
