Industrial Applications

Engineered for long life under full production conditions

Producing at a faster pace with ever-greater quality at lower costs: that's what counts in high-volume production environments. Maximize your manufacturing process by integrating vacuum furnaces for heat treatment applications with excellent reliability over time, even in the most demanding conditions.

Vacuum sintering

Sintering is a MIM (Metal Injection Moulding) technology based on atomic diffusion which occurs much faster at high temperatures. Vacuum speeds up cycle times and guarantees temperature uniformity with more predictable results.

UHV (Ultra High Vacuum)

Many processes in advanced research and industrial manufacturing must be operated in an ultra high vacuum environment. Vacuum is ideal for ultra-clean and high-temperature applications which have extremely high quality requirements, such as semiconductor devices.

Vacuum heat treatments

A controlled process used to alter the microstructure of metals and alloys in order to impart properties such as increased surface hardness, ductility and strength. Vacuum ensures that no oxidation occurs: it is clean, pollution free and oxygen free according to the vacuum level.

Advanced ceramics

High-performance ceramics have exceptional mechanical properties in many respects including high temperature resistance and high wear resistance. Used in a wide range of industrial applications, such as aerospace, automotive, medical technologies and many other industries.

Vacuum brazing

Brazing in a vacuum furnace allows for more precise control of tolerances and provides clean joints with no need for additional finishing. Vacuum is especially suited for aluminium brazing of heat exchangers because air is excluded, thus preventing the formation of oxides.

Aluminizing

The aluminizing process helps slow down or stop corrosion by protecting the surface in corrosive and/or high temperature environments. Diffusion of aluminium into the surface of steel is applied, for example, to make pipes that will carry steam or acids.

More predictable results

High-precision control system to improve the reliability of production processes while speeding up the manufacturing cycle at the same time.

Manufacturing flow integration
