Fluidised Bed Heat Treatment Furnaces

Created by heat treaters for heat treaters

The product range is the result of 30 years experience, processing parts of every conceivable shape, size and material type. The 40100 HT fluidised bed has been developed to replace the standard salt pot, but with none of the disadvantages. Units, currently in use 24 hours a day, have given over two years of trouble free operation, with no retort or heater replacement. Compare that with an average salt pot life of six months.

    A range of furnace size to suit everyone

The Next Generation

New features include:

 

75120 HTN

This furnace can easily process loads of 2000 kgs. Uniformity of temperature that cannot be matched by any other process technique. Lowest possible cost.

The HTN range can carry out all neutral processes up to 1050 oc, and in addition offers nitriding and nitrocarburising with minimal time to change between processes.

graph3    Temperature uniformity is arguably the most important aspect of good heat treatment. Accurate control of temperature not only determines  hardness and structure, but also minimises distortion. This graph illustrates  accuracy that no other technique could match.

Single units designed to your specific requirements, or a full production plant can be supplied. The plant shown here can easily process in excess of 100 000 kilograms per month.
