A North America-based company is set to receive a four-gun electron beam hearth melting furnace from their industry partner of 3 years.
Retech, a division of SECO/WARWICK Group, received this third contract in as many years from the returning partner after the successful planning, installation, commissioning, and subsequent operation and progress of the last two EB hearth melters. Along with that, repeat orders from a known partner reduce uncertainty and risk for the company. Put more simply, practice makes perfect.
These EB furnaces have a throughput that is suitable for large-ingot casting of reactive/refractory metals when alloying with metals having similar vaporization temperatures, whereas plasma arc melting, although slower, would be the more suitable choice for dissimilar vaporization temperatures.

“We are thrilled to be an ongoing partner in this customer’s growth,” said Earl Good, managing director of Retech Systems. “We know they have multiple competitive options for their vacuum metallurgy equipment, so we take nothing for granted, and work hard to earn their business every step of the way. Ongoing awards like this suggest we’re doing a lot of things right.”
Retech produces and assembles vacuum melting equipment entirely in North America. Their integrated R&D, manufacturing, and assembly facility in Buffalo allows them to do that. The North American supplier also has exclusive use of electron beam guns from Von Ardenne, industry pioneers of electron beam technology.
