An auto parts manufacturer that specializes in the production of radiators and air conditioning systems recently ordered a fully electric furnace for brazing aluminum in a protective atmosphere. The EV/CAB line is designed for the production of tubular and plate-fin heat exchangers with uniform temperature distribution across the 1300 mm wide belt.

SECO/WARWICK designed the uniform temperature distribution feature in the equipment to meet the company’s quality requirements of the finished products. The CAB line on order, the first this manufacturer has acquired from SECO/WARWICK, provides the continuous brazing of products with similar dimensions and features. The temperature is evenly distributed over the entire width of the belt due to several independent heating zones, resulting in long-term operation under industrial conditions.
“Uniform temperature distribution across the entire belt, regardless of how wide it is, is an important consideration influencing the final effect of the production,” said Piotr Skarbiński, vice president of the Aluminum Process and CAB Business Segment at SECO/WARWICK. “Our furnaces provide an optimal brazing temperature profile and a very clean atmosphere necessary to maintain high process quality. In China, we sell CAB lines for manufacturers of electric vehicle battery coolers, as well as for manufacturers of other heat exchangers. The furnaces on order by this partner are powered by electricity, making them ecological and free of CO2 emissions.”
