Thermal-Vac Technology will expand their capabilities with a precision nitriding and ferritic nitrocarburizing furnace at their facility in Orange, California. The furnace is capable of processing workloads that are 48” wide by 72” long by 40” high and weigh up to 7,000 pounds.
Gasbarre Thermal Processing Systems‘ electrically heated furnace utilizes Super Systems, Inc. controls for automatic KN and KC control to AMS 2759/10 & 2759/12 specifications. The furnace is designed to meet AMS 2750F as a Class 2 furnace, which allows it to be used to perform nitrogen tempering and stress relieving processes. For cycle time improvements and consistent process control, the furnace is equipped with a vacuum pump for purging processes, pre- and post-oxidation capabilities, and accelerated air and atmosphere cooling systems. The furnace also comes with an ammonia dissociator to achieve zero white layer processes.
Gasbarre engineered, manufactured, and serviced this system out of their United States locations. Thermal-Vac is set to receive the equipment in March of 2021.
