Solar Manufacturing shipped two vacuum furnaces to an aviation-engine repair facility located in the western U.S. Each furnace is designed with energy-efficient graphite insulation and engineered to accommodate various part and load sizes. Both are tailored specifically to fit the needs of aerospace-engine component repair processing to the aerospace specification AMS 2750E.
Solar Atmospheres of California (SCA) completed its most recent facility expansion, which will allow the company to double its heat-treating capacity. The project began in July 2016 with groundbreaking for a new 25,000-square-foot building. Upon completion of construction in July 2017, SCA immediately began the design, fabrication and installation of all required support systems, including water and gas delivery. In preparation for the added capacity, SCA procured four new vacuum furnaces from sister company Solar Manufacturing.
This article provides actual data for testing performed to compare argon and nitrogen as cooling media in vacuum furnaces. The data includes five different highly alloyed materials.
Metal enhancement has long played a critical role in manufacturing. As engineers strive to improve components, surface treatments ensure part performance keeps up with design standards.
