Do you know what truly happens in your furnace? Applying through-process optical profiling will help you fully understand what is happening inside your heat-treat process.
In the global industrial heat-treating market, tens of thousands of products are sent through conveyorized ovens or furnaces each and every day. The thermal processing of these products – whether heat treating the core material or even curing a surface coating – is often critical to the quality or performance of the finished product. Whether aluminum brazing a radiator or curing paint on a car body, achieving the correct process times and temperatures is essential.
From start to finish, the production of metal products is one of the most energy-intensive industries in the world. As a result, improving both energy and production efficiency, while also ensuring product quality, is likely at the top of any manufacturer’s to-do list.
When it comes to heat treating, understanding the way the furnace works is key to optimizing the process. Fortunately, this understanding can be achieved with thermal profiling.
The NIR-B-2K short-wavelength radiometric infrared borescope imaging camera is designed for continuous industrial furnace process monitoring and control applications requiring highly accurate temperature measurement.
A hot runner or hot manifold system is an assembly of a mold, heaters, controller and temperature-sensing components working together to manufacture the next plastic pen or automotive part.
First variations of hot runner systems started appearing in manufacturing in the mid-20th century but did not become standard in the industry until the 1980s, driven by the need for consistent quality and productivity improvements.
Enhanced infrared pyrometer software packages, SPOTViewer and SPOTPro, are designed to give users a better understanding of the performance of their processes and help realize industry 4.0 connectivity.
Questions about AMS 2750 are common for readers of this journal. We review the impact of this important pyrometry specification to help you deal with the complexities and unknowns in the high-temperature environment of sintering.
In today’s manufacturing market, aluminum is increasingly becoming the material of choice being lighter, safer and more sustainable. With estimated growth in global aluminum demand of 4-5% in 2018, both primary and secondary processors of aluminum are rapidly looking to improve the efficiency of their operations.
It's not surprising there are several AMS 2750-related articles on our Process Control and Instrumentation favorites list. This, along with keeping up with new technologies, is what readers seek.
