This initiative supports the automaker\u2019s commitment to improving production efficiency while advancing sustainability and cost management efforts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The facility specializes in manufacturing engine components that require carburizing, a heat-treatment process that enhances surface durability by introducing carbon into the material. Previously, the site relied on aging, gas-heated generators to produce endothermic gas for this process. However, these generators had become inefficient, consuming excessive natural gas and increasing CO\u2082 emissions. To address these challenges, the manufacturer has chosen Nitrex\u2019s electrically heated EndoFlex L endothermic gas generators to optimize efficiency and reduce environmental impact.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Designed specifically for carburizing applications, the EndoFlex L features a multi-retort design and precise temperature control, ensuring a consistent and stable supply of high-quality endothermic gas. The system operates on demand, significantly reducing gas consumption and emissions, making it a more sustainable and cost-effective solution.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Daniel Panny, head of sales Europe at Nitrex, emphasized the company\u2019s long-standing relationship with the automaker, noting that previous projects included upgrading legacy generators with the EndoInjector gas injection system. He stated that this latest investment demonstrates how sustained partnerships can drive meaningful advancements in industrial manufacturing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nitrex.com\/en\/automaker-to-modernize-heat-treatment-ops-with-upc-marathon\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Read further here.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Automaker modernizes heat-treatment operations with Nitrex technology Nitrex, Quebec, announced that a major automotive manufacturer has selected its EndoFlex L generators to upgrade heat-treatment operations.
