STAMPING MANUFACTURER ORDERS AFC-HOLCROFT AUSTEMPER SYSTEM

     A large stamping manufacturer has ordered a mesh belt austempering furnace system from AFC-Holcroft. This is the 5th AFC-Holcroft austemper furnace line at the facility.

     The system will be used for the austempering of metal stampings, and consists of a mesh belt austempering furnace with integral salt quench tank, a conveyorized wash/rinse tank, and an endothermic gas generator to serve the line. In addition, the line will include AFC-Holcroft’s BeltMaster™ System for monitoring and controlling the furnace line.

    The hardening furnace will be reinforced with a free standing structural steel support frame so that an excavated pit is not required for the salt quench tank. The salt quench tank will include a secondary containment tank.

    Delivery of the line will be second quarter of 2015.
