VertiQuench – very fast vertical quenching
SECO/WARWICK continues to enjoy another outstanding year with number of great orders and latest technologies development.
The Aluminium Process Team is proud of their achievements. After numerous Drop-Bottom furnaces were commissioned and significant improvements were implemented, this equipment became a top product in our portfolio. In order to emphasize the product catchiness, we registered Drop-Bottom furnace under the new brand name: VertiQuench ®.
The name describes the process of very fast vertical quenching. The heat treated material is being dropped into the quenching tank placed exactly under the furnace. This is an affordable solution for demanding aerospace applications that provides:
AMS2770 compliant quench transfer times
extremely tight temperature uniformity resulting from proprietary and proven airflow innovations
fast and full load immersion even up to 5 seconds
compact design enabling line expansion
low utilities consumption.
