Gallos Metal Solutions Inc., Milwaukee, WI (GALLOS) recently received a high capacity mesh belt heat treatment furnace line. The company specializes in continuous mesh belt atmosphere heat treatment, and this new line will be used primarily for demanding processing including carbonitriding and carburizing, while still allowing for neutral heat treatment with a production capacity up to 4000 lbs/hr.
This furnace line is part of GALLOS’ massive plant expansion and modernization project, which has more than doubled the existing plant square footage, increased capacity, and added automation. The benefits of the system -- including increased usable hearth area for high-volume processing while running products requiring carbon diffusion and lighter belt loading -- are aligned to the expansion-oriented plant plans.
The supplier, Can-Eng Furnaces International, Ltd. (CAN-ENG), lists some the additional features of this furnace: a computerized controlled automated bin dumping and vibratory part feeder system, dunk and spray pre-washer, protective atmosphere controlled mesh belt hardening system, oil quench, dunk and spray post wash system, forced recirculation temper furnace, in-line post cooling system, and CAN-ENG’s PETTM Level 2 SCADA system.
GALLOS is a family-owned commercial heat treating company which is involved in the automotive, agricultural, aerospace, and medical industries.
