After 32 years at the helm of INEX Inc., a Holland, N.Y.-based provider of silicon-carbide radiant tubes, owner Mike Kasprzyk announced his retirement. Kasprzyk will continue to be active in the company by supporting Michael Rumfola, new owner and president. Rumfola brings 25 years of experience in the heat-transfer industry to INEX. He has a bachelor’s in physics from Fredonia State University and a bachelor’s in mechanical engineering from the University of Buffalo. Kasprzyk, meanwhile, will also serve as a consultant.
Optimized production and minimized maintenance requirements are desirable conditions in any heat-treating operation. For applications depending on radiant-tube heat, following a few fundamental tips can help you achieve those goals.
The introduction of additive-manufactured (AM) advanced silicon carbide (SiC), including 3D-printed shapes, opens up a new window of opportunity for end-users, designers and manufacturers of high-temperature heating equipment.
Indirect-fired heat-processing equipment is crucial for many heat-treatment processes in which the product or load must not come into direct contact with the flame or products of combustion.
Atlantic Heat Treating Ltd. of Ontario, Canada, contacted Sandvik and raised concerns on the relatively short lifetime of existing SER radiant tubes in its gas-fired furnace.
RA 602 CA® – also known as 602 CA® and NiCroFer 6025, which are trademarks of VDM – is a relatively new heat-resistant alloy with excellent creep strength at very high temperatures and oxidation resistance up to 2250°F (1232°C).
Steeltech Ltd. has been an industry-leading provider of superior heat- and corrosion-resistant products for international and domestic markets since 1929.
