Heat treaters often find themselves questioning whether they should replace or retrofit equipment.

Understanding PID loops can be frustrating and seemingly difficult, but it doesn’t have to be this way. What you may not realize is that we all use PID control in our everyday lives.

When a surface-treatment company adds data logging, they gain run-time data.

Diversified Services, the heat-treating division of Metal Finishing Company, completed installation of Super Systems Inc. (SSi) controls on all of its equipment.

A family of new precision PLC products is aimed at significantly increasing the profitability and efficiency of heat-treatment and thermal-processing operations. 

A Smart 1.0 Windows-based, programmable logic controller (PLC) platform for use in industrial ovens has been developed. 

Many variables affect natural gas combustion, including environmental conditions. Corrective measures and enhanced controls can reduce the impacts of these variables and can provide optimum control continuously, maximizing the efficiency of industrial burners.

Perfecting your thermal-processing operations is paramount to producing high-quality products. By mastering and maintaining control of your equipment – old and new – you can achieve this optimization.

Sona BLW Precision Forge chose Super Systems Inc. (SSi) as its controls and SCADA partner for upgrades in its heat-treating department.
