A commercial heat treat company which is approved to heat treat certain flight critical and flight safety configurations for prime aerospace and helicopter companies recently invested in a new Universal Batch Quench (UBQ) furnace and a Universal Batch Temper (UBTN) annealing furnace to be operated at its plant in Fraser, Michigan.
“We’re excited to be a part of the continued growth and expansion of Specialty Steel Treating,” said Tracy Dougherty, Vice President of Sales at AFC-Holcroft. “The customization of these furnaces combined with state of the art controls and IoT features (Remote Diagnostics™), enable both AFC-Holcroft and Specialty Steel Treating the ability to offer superior quality, performance and continuous improvement to customers.”
Delivery of the UBTN is expected in the 2nd quarter of 2019 to the Specialty Steel Treating site on Malyn Road in Fraser, with the UBQ to follow in the 3rd quarter to the Commerce Road plant, also located in Fraser.
