AFC-Holcroft, Wixom, Mich., announces that Mincon Group, headquartered in Shannon, Ireland, has purchased two separate and complete batch-style integral-quench heat-treatment lines. The equipment will be utilized for the heat treatment of components for heavy industries such as mining and drilling. Both batch furnace lines have features designed to reduce distortion.<\/font><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/font><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

One complete furnace line, consists of an integral quench batch furnace with an effective load size of 36x72x56 inches, tempering furnaces, washing and conveying equipment, controls system, and accessory equipment. This will be sent to the customer\u2019s manufacturing facility in Benton, Illinois. <\/font>A smaller size line with an effective load size of 36x48x36 inches will be delivered to Perth, Australia. <\/font><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The size of the line in Benton is noteworthy in that the furnace load size is considered very large by industry standards (furnace has a gross load capacity of 6000 pounds), yet AFC-Holcroft offers this size as one of its standard designs, with numerous installations of this size presently in operation.<\/font><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve seen tremendous demand for on the part of manufacturers to improve control, quality, and consistency, as well as to reduce distortion,\u201d says Tracy Dougherty, Sales Manager at AFC-Holcroft. \u201cThe addition of these batch furnace lines will allow Mincon to increase production using brand-new equipment that meets their need for high quality and productivity.\u201d<\/font><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
