Leading companies in the aerospace, automotive, commercial heat treating, medical, and metal injection molding industries received shipment of 25 furnaces during the last three months of 2016 from Ipsen, one of North America’s leading suppliers of industrial heat treating furnaces. Furnaces were received at heat treat facilities in six counties and 13 U.S. states and ranged in design from custom-built debinding and sintering furnace to a horizontal vacuum furnace (MetalMaster®) with 20,000-pound (9,072 kg) load capacity.
Newly received units also included an atmosphere washer and loader and several TITAN® vacuum furnaces equipped with PdMetrics® predictive maintenance software designed to optimize equipment performance and minimize downtime. Other vacuum furnaces received included horizontal and vertical MetalMaster furnaces, TITAN DS (debinding and sintering) furnaces, a VerticalTurbo, a TITAN LT (low-temperature), a horizontal TurboTreater® and an HEQ (horizontal external quench) from the VFS® product line.
