Eight vacuum heat treating systems were shipped to customers in Costa Rica, India, Germany and the United States. Ipsen USA recently shipped this equipment and it will be used to support the additive manufacturing, aerospace, medical, MIM and tooling industries.
The vacuum furnaces shipped included a vertical MetalMaster® furnace with a 5,000-pound (2,268 kg) capacity; a custom-built furnace for debinding and sintering; horizontal MetalMaster and TurboTreater®furnaces; a TITAN® DS (debinding and sintering) furnace; and several H2- and H6-sized TITAN vacuum furnaces equipped with the PdMetrics® software platform for predictive maintenance. This software platform securely connects to a network of integrated sensors on the furnace to gather and analyze data, run algorithms and provide real-time diagnostic that improve the health and integrity of the equipment.
