The ECO Furnace is a vacuum, double chamber installation including a furnace and an integrated oil quenching cell. This compact system aims at replacing sealed quench furnaces or IQ furnaces for hardening or carburizing operations.
Thanks to the use of vacuum, the ECO system is very efficient. Processes take place at higher temperature compared to conventional solutions. This increases productivity, allowing a higher throughput. Also, the environmental impact of this equipment is optimized. Indeed, electric heating combined with vacuum allow to get rid of endo gas generators. The furnace only consumes the gas needed to enrich parts with carbon. As a result, energy consumption is controled and CO2 emissions are among the lowest. As a result, a strong cut of 80% of CO2 emission is achieved in comparison with integral quench furnaces.
Moreover, ECO furnaces are flexible. Indeed, several processes can be operated.
Furthermore, thanks to electric heating and vacuum, their integration in workshops is made super easy. Indeed, no flames are generated and the risk of fire hazard is eliminated.
Finally, ECO Furnaces can be integrated in existing batch lines, using the same peripherals and conveyors.
