The furnace will allow the company to offer engineered steel surfaces that exceed, in many cases, its competitors\u2019 product performance, giving it an edge via heat treating that few other companies in their competitive sphere can replicate. The customer is involved in high-end manufacturing of various transportation components.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-size:12.0pt\">ZeroFlow solves a broad array of heat processing needs, such as lower operating costs, attractive return-on-investment (ROI), precise control of case depth, and control of nitride layer formation. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-size:12.0pt\">\u201cZeroFlow refers to precision gas nitriding, but the Seco Vacuum retort line of furnaces offers so much more,&#8221; said Piotr Zawistowski, Managing Director of Seco Vacuum Technologies.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12.0pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\">The vacuum purge provides inexpensive processing atmospheres, and the vacuum-tight construction assures clean heat processing for tempering, annealing, and precipitation hardening. This retort furnace can be paired with a oil quench hardening and low pressure carburizing furnace for extreme flexibility.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-size:12.0pt\">The furnace is equipped with all options, including accelerated turbo cooling. In addition to gas nitriding, it also has ferritic nitrocarburizing capability and pre- and post-oxidation. Unique to its design is the ability to clean temper and clean anneal to temperatures up to 1400\u00b0F.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-size:12.0pt\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.secovacusa.com\/product\/zeroflow-furnace\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.secovacusa.com\/product\/zeroflow-furnace<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seco Vacuum, Meadville, Pa., reports that a growing American manufacturer has recently ordered a new precision gas nitriding furnace with ZeroFlow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":63082,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[446,440,441,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8467","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-automobiles-and-ground-transportation","category-news","category-news-articles","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
