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.

For anyone involved in industrial heating, a critical need of any heat-treatment process is the ability to measure and control both process and product temperature.

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.
