A roller-type furnace intended for spheroidizing annealing of bearing steel forgings will be operated in the Kielce plant of global bearing manufacturer NSK. The process line built around a roller-type furnace is intended for heat treatment of workpieces will be assembled into bearings to be used, for example, in the automotive sector.
The company received the same SECO/WARWICK furnace years ago, and the line featuring it has been operating in the NSK factory for seven years now. This type of equipment has technological roots in the U.S.
"We know that bearing production requires a huge amount of precision," said Piotr Skarbiński, VP in charge of this product segment at SECO/WARWICK Group. "The required metallographic structure can be achieved in the production process only with a strict and repeatable regime of a many-hour thermal process. That is why our production line intended for this purpose is based on full automation of processes. This enables the elimination of all errors resulting from the human factor."
