25% larger volume capacity.

External radial fans for homogeneous and

uniform gas speed distribution over the load.

ModulTherm – Characteristics

Precise reproducibility via accurate control of

cooling gas flow

Operational cost advantages:

Environmentally friendly

Workplace friendly

Flexible in operation

Potential to eliminate post HT press quenching or straightening

Significant Characteristics Operation

Furnace is switched off during idle periods (batch type furnace heating up

and cooling down time 2-3 hours)

Energy, cost saving.

Use of “vacuum” and inert gases, minimal quantities of carburizing gas

fire precautions, no sprinkler required.

automatic smoke vents in the roof.

No oil resistant floors and surfaces required.

No toxic gases with CO component.

No explosion hazards, no open flames.

Significant Characteristics Operation

Decoupled Efficiency - Motors, drives and sensors are outside of vacuum

- Accessible during operation

- Never exposed to carburizing atmosphere

Highest flexibility, various processes can be run

simultaneously, and yet eliminate cross

contamination.

Ultra-precise reproducibility due to movable

quench chamber.

ModulTherm - Characteristics

Convective heating for faster heating and

minimized distortion.

Reversible gas flow during quenching.
