HOFMANN
industrial furnaces have been produced since 1946.Today HOFMANN
furnaces are well known for their reliability in more than 40
countries.
HOFMANN emphasize special care on optimum consumption of energy,
temperature accuracy and user oriented design, which turn their
innovations into customers' profit!
The
above picture is HOFMANN developed automatic heat treatment of
engine blocks and cylinder heads.
There are two parallel heat treatment lines. The charging machine
picks up the full baskets from the pick up place and loads the heat
treatment furnace from the left side. Afterwards the charge is
cooled in a water basin. Then it is aged. The baskets are
automatically unloaded on the right end of the street.
This
plant optimized the production cycles, but what counts even more is
the fact, that due to new constructions the heat treating time could
be shortened significantly. Today our customer saves 27 % pure heat
treating time per cycle. The good temperature accuracy within all
the furnaces can be attributed to exact air flow. As a result our
customer is pleased with reaching a more uniform hardness today. |
