Adamus contacted us for the fourth time,” said Maciej Korecki, vice president of the vacuum furnaces segment at SECO/WARWICK. “This time, the partner wanted to replace an older, inefficient vacuum furnace with oil hardening, with a modern, more ecological and more economical vacuum furnace with gas hardening. Vector will perfectly meet these needs. It is compact, so it will not take up much space, it is efficient and ensures process purity, which is extremely important in the pharmaceutical industry.”

The Vector vacuum furnace on order solves Adamus’s challenge to grow production in order to meet their increased demand for the number of punch hardening processes for tablet production. The presses produce components that are integral to the manufacturing process in the pharmaceutical industry, which maintains demanding standards, procedures, and technical parameters.

“The challenge is the constantly growing demand for our punches and spare parts used for units operating in pharmaceutical plants,” said a representative of Adamus, based in Poland. “However, it is important to choose well-thought-out solutions which will be used in many processes when expanding the machine park, ensuring the highest quality of production.”
