A vacuum heat-treating system with 2-bar gas quenching was shipped to Costa Rica and will be used to manufacture surgical components. The TITAN® H2, manufactured by Ipsen, helps companies accelerate the pace of innovation while satisfying the strict legal requirements of the medical industry.
The standardized vacuum furnace features an 18″ x 24″ x 18″ (455 mm x 610 mm x 455 mm) all-metal hot zone with a 1,000-pound (450 kg) load capacity. It is capable of operating at temperatures of 1,000 °F to 2,400 °F (538 °C to 1,316 °C) with ±10 °F (±6 °C) temperature uniformity. Equipped with the PdMetrics® platform for predictive maintenance – which securely connects to a network of integrated sensors on the furnace to gather and analyze data, run algorithms and provide real-time diagnostics – the furnace provides sophisticated monitoring of critical systems and key parameters that improve the health and integrity of the equipment. The company also received a gas backfill reservoir, a loader with a 2,000-pound (907 kg) load capacity and a complete air-cooled, closed-loop water system.
