Vacuum Furnace Technology: Optimize Production & Achieve Green Initiatives
|
Optimize production by investing in ECM VACUUM FURNACE SYSTEMS to meet your green initiatives: minimize energy consumption, eliminate CO2 furnace emissions, and improve 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).
Vacuum technology also improves employee safety by removing the risk of fire hazards/open flames and easily integrates into existing atmosphere batch lines.

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.
