Introduction
Best regards,

“The Monty” July 2015 issue. The theme for this issue of “The Monty” would
have to be the recent global heat treatment show “ThermProcess” which was
recently held in Dusseldorf, Germany. While this exhibition has always billed itself
as a global event we see a marked difference over the past 12 years (which is as
far back as our personal experience goes). It truly is becoming more global with a
substantially larger presence of Asians and North Americans. Our coverage of this
event we hope you will find complete and interesting. All of this preamble brings
me to my favorite characteristic of the worldwide heat treating the fact that
everybody knows everybody else. In what other industry can you meet a fellow
from the other side of the world and after a 10 minute conversation realize you
have 10 mutual friends? With our limited exposure to other industries we would
like to think that heat treating is truly unique. Read and hopefully enjoy the
absolute latest news in the heat treating industry in this issue.

ASM Detroit Heat Treat Show. We welcome our newest advertiser the American
Society of Metals (ASM) who are promoting the upcoming show in Detroit,
Michigan being held October 20-22nd 2015. This is the largest and best North
American heat treat show of 2015 and while Detroit might not be everybody's first
choice this should not be missed. If memory serves us correctly the last time this
show was held in Detroit was 2007 and we dug out some photos from that show.

Somebody Is In Trouble! We have no idea who the guilty party in this story is or
even whether it is a captive or commercial heat treater but some heat treater made
a real big mistake as you can read in this story. June 30/2015
"Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is telling owners of 65 new 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokees
and Dodge Durangos to immediately stop driving the vehicles and is recalling a total
of 7,690 SUVs. The automaker said it is taking the unusual step of telling owners to
stop driving the vehicles because suspension components were installed that were
not correctly treated by a supplier for high temperatures. That condition could cause
the component to break or could rear-end instability and/or reduced braking power.
The other 7,625 Jeep Grand Cherokees and Dodge Durangos have not been sold.
They are either on dealer lots or are on their way to dealers. The automaker said a
"supplier discovered a potential problem during an internal quality review. FCA US
was alerted, launched an investigation to determine if any vehicles were affected

Kanthal Press Release. Kanthal (you know Kanthal-the heating elements people)
has issued this press release. June 30/2015
“The world is facing new challenges and perhaps the major ones
are to support the world’s growing population with food, water and
energy in order to make the world a better place for everyone. We
want to be a part of solving this challenge and we would like to
invite our customers and partners to be a part of that challenge”,
says Nicklas Nilsson, Vice President Sandvik Materials Technology
and Head of Product Area Strip, Wire and Heating Technology.
“Innovations are part of the DNA of both Sandvik and Kanthal and
a successful innovation often results from sharing ideas and
combining them into new ones to create win-win solutions. Sharing
is therefore also one of the basic features of the Kanthal Award”,
Nicklas Nilsson continues. "The aim of the Kanthal Award, innovation, justifies the
acceptance of the award by Arcelor Mittal. We also saw that the Sandvik culture was
similar to our own in prioritizing safety. As explained by the guest speaker Fredrik
Härén we focus on tomorrow challenges where energy savings is one of them. The
event was friendly, allowed an exchange of ideas between people and was well
organized", says Laurent Mondy from Arcelor Mittal.
Fredrik Härén was one of the guest speakers at the Kanthal Award and he talked
about business creativity and how combining ideas can lead to new, important
solutions. Professor Bo Jönsson, talked about that everyone in the value chain has
to work together in order to improve tomorrows thermal processes regarding
technique, productivity, energy efficiency and use of limited resources. Professor
Jönsson is an adjunct professor at Chalmers Technical University and also serves as
chairman of HTC, the High Temperature Corrosion Competence Centre. He is also a

"The first ever Kanthal Award 2015 goes to Arcelor Mittal for their innovative use of
Kanthal APMT™ rollers. By excluding water cooling in the process Arcelor Mittal has
managed to significantly reduce energy consumption, thereby contributing to a
sustainable reduction in energy use. The prize was presented at the Thermprocess
Exhibition in Dusseldorf. The Kanthal Award includes a prize sum of 5000 euros, a
statuette and a diploma. The prize sum is, however, not for the winner to keep but
is to be donated to a charitable organization which supports the
same criteria the Kanthal Award is based on – sustainability, health
and safety. Arcelor Mittal will donate their award to the French
bone-marrow organization France Greffe de Moelle. The annual
Kanthal Award will be open for nominations in the autumn of 2015.
A jury will present the award to the nominee who has found an
innovative and sustainable way to use products or services related
to thermal processing and improvements to health and safety.

makes extensive investments in R&D."
Monday Morning Briefing. Hansen-Balk Steel Treating Company of Grand
Rapids, MI is probably one of the two largest commercial vacuum heat treaters in
North America the other being Solar Atmospheres. So the place is obviously large
and now we know getting larger. The company has plans in place for a $3.21 million
USD expansion of which $929,589 is slated for real property improvements and
nearly $2.28 million for equipment. Currently the plant has 90,000 square feet
under roof and has been around since 1955. Good for them we always like to see
heat treaters growing and investing. On the other end of the spectrum we see that a
commercial heat treater recently closed one of it’s locations. Alfe Heat Treating is
one of the largest in North America and certainly the largest when it comes to
aluminum heat treating. June 1 their plant in Charlotte, SC was closed. This plant
was always rather unusual for Alfe in that most of the plants focused on aluminum
heat treating whereas this location offered aluminum, carburizing and vacuum
capabilities. A recent fire at the plant might have prompted the closure of this
location. Don’t like to see plant closures but Alfe remains one of the largest and
most established commercial heat treaters in North America. This photo shows the
Charlotte plant.

Lucifer Furnaces say they have supplied a dual-chamber furnace to Laboratory
Testing Inc. (LTI), a full-service materials testing lab based in Hatfield, Pa. LTI will
use the furnace to perform capability heat treating to various specifications for
ASTM, AMS, GE, ASME and other customer requirements, including solution
treatment cycles, aging cycles, post-weld heat treat, normalizing, hardening and
tempering. LTI specializes in performing metals testing through destructive and
nondestructive testing methods. Northland Heat Treating was a small commercial
shop in Antigo, WI which closed down a few months back. A number of people
speculated about what was happening to the equipment-as it turns out it is going to
auction July 30th. The equipment consists of a Holcroft batch IQ furnace with
working dimensions of 36 X 48 X 30 and associated tempers, washers, endo
generators and charge car. From the photos we have seen it all looks in decent
shape and will most likely sell for a respectable price.

In India commercial heat treater Hightemp (the countries largest) is certainly in
expansion mode with plans to expand four locations by adding a total of 8 more
furnaces. Land has been acquired at the Bangalore location (4 acres), Ahmedabad
(8.4 acres) and Pune (3.4 acres). This capacity will be dedicated to the auto industry
and will be completed by 2017. On the new furnace side the company has received
orders for 15 batch IQ furnaces from Indian customers working in the auto
components field. Also the company is delivering an automated continuous
carburizing line to a Swedish-Italian customer which will be in operation August of
this year. The line is designed to handle ring gears and shafts and will feature press
quenching. Furnace builder SECO WARWICK has this to say today; "At the
beginning of May, Seco/Warwick Europe has signed a contract with RUSAL
Krasnoyarsk, Russia, for delivery, installation, and commissioning of a billet
continuous homogenizing line. The line includes: continuous homogenizing furnace
with walking beam conveyor system, turbo air cooler, water tank,
control system, as well as related equipment i.e. ultrasonic station,
saw stations, stacking, strapping and wrapping system for
horizontal and vertical packages of the logs. The furnace allows
processing logs with diameters varying from 8’’ to 18’’ (203,2 mm
to 457,2 mm) without having to change its performance
parameters. Thanks to its multi-zone design, vertical airflow
furnace technology is inherently flexible. Owing to the unique
design the furnace can process batches of different alloys and
diameters without necessity to empty the heating zones. The
system is completely automated and ensures better energy
efficiency. In a typical production solution, the whole technological
line is ended with a device which cuts the logs for required length
and a unit for packing prior dispatch. The completion of the project
is planned for January 2017". Carbolite Gero Press Release;
"Carbolite Gero is pleased to announce a new line of batch furnaces
for sale in North America. The new Serie 3000 furnaces are

"In its 100-year history, Surface Combustion Inc. has manufactured furnaces
used for everything from building cymbals to burning warheads. The Maumee firm,
incorporated June 22, 1915, celebrates its centennial Friday. “Everybody always
wondered, ‘What’s this weird name?’ ” said Chief Executive William Bernard, Jr., who
has been with the firm since 1969. “Actually, surface combustion is a patented
technology.” The company produces a variety of industrial furnaces and heat
processing equipment and has 675 patents. Although the firm started in the Bronx,
N.Y., financier and oilman Henry L. Doherty bought and moved the
company to Toledo’s Dorr Street in 1928. He favored the
manufacturing center of the Midwest along with the area’s
universities that educated engineers, according to Mr. Bernard.
Surface Combustion moved to Maumee in 1988 and has its
headquarters at 1700 Indian Wood Circle in Arrowhead Park. The
company’s factory is in Waterville, opened there in 1991. It has
about 100 employees and has annual sales of about $40 million to
$50 million, said Jeffrey Valuck, administration and sales director.
The company’s various furnaces are used to harden, dry, or
otherwise strengthen materials. Engineers draft proposals for
specific heat-treating needs, then manufacture and transport the
equipment, sometimes building it on-site, depending on the size.
“We do a lot of work in the energy equipment field, automotive, off
road vehicles, farming, mining industry — wherever you have a
need for a value added part,” Mr. Bernard said. Surface
Combustion has made furnaces used to heat treat cymbals so that
they produce the right sound. Its furnaces have helped dry grains
and cereal for food companies. Other equipment heat treats silicon used in
computers. Mr. Bernard says that perhaps the most “noble” use of his company’s
equipment has been to destroy chemical weapons. “It’s not our primary business,
but it shows what technology can do,” he said. The firm has had such equipment
since the early 1970s, and some of its furnaces have been used in Russia to destroy

Surface Combustion Inc. Today is the day that furnace builder Surface
Combustion of Maumee, Ohio celebrates their 100th anniversary-a milestone
reached by very few furnace builders anywhere in the world. Surface rates as one of
the 5 largest furnace builders in the US in terms of annual sales and their Allcase

America. June 26/2015

has equipment installed in 40 to 50 countries."
"Three new, highly innovative heating products were launched by Sandvik
Materials Technology at the Thermprocess exhibition in Düsseldorf. The first
ever Kanthal Award was also presented in connection with the exhibition. “We are
facing an exciting period of growth for our entire product portfolio, delivering
solutions ranging from traditional Kanthal products to complex heating systems,”
said Martin McIver, acting Marketing Manager. “We think successful innovations
often come from sharing ideas. This creates win-win solutions, and that is why we
have initiated the Kanthal Award. The world faces new challenges in the future and a
major one is using the planet’s limited resources to support a continuously growing
population.” “We think we can be part of solving this challenge and making the
world a better place for everyone by supporting innovations that develop
environmentally friendly energy sources or use energy in an efficient way,” says
Nicklas Nilsson, Vice President Sandvik Materials Technology and Head of Product
Area Strip, Wire and Heating Technology. Part of Sandvik Materials Technology,
Kanthal® is a global brand in heating technology with access to Sandvik’s worldclass resources, including research and development and advanced processing

Koyo Bearings/Telford, TN. This press release is very interesting but we don’t
know exactly what Koyo Bearings is adding to their heat treating department, just
that it is something big. "A well-established Washington County maker of vehicle
parts is expanding again, with some help from the county’s Industrial Development
Board. On Wednesday, the board unanimously approved an amendment to the lease
agreement with Japan-based Koyo to provide a 10-year tax abatement for $8 million
worth of equipment, including a larger heat treatment furnace, new to the Telford
plant. The new equipment will allow Koyo to add 11 jobs to its current workforce of
154, Washington County Economic Development Council Business Development
Director Alicia Summers told the members of the board. Koyo chose to bring its
tapered roller bearing production plant to the Telford park in 2006, and officially
opened the facility two years later. The 2010 expansion increased the plant’s
floorspace to 139,000 square feet. In 2007, Nakatetsu Machining Technologies,
Koyo’s sister company and parts supplier, built a 71,000-square-foot facility next
door in the park, later adding 21,000 square feet". Furnace builder Surface
Combustion has received another order for a large batch IQ line from the largest
commercial heat treater in Wisconsin-we have lost track of how many furnaces
Surface has sold to this one particular customer.
GKN Aerospace/Columbia, SC. No surprise to anybody-the south is rising again.
"CGKN Aerospace announced that it will open a new state-of-the-art manufacturing

Monday Morning Briefing. With the ThermProcess show in Dusseldorf, Germany
just concluded we will start off with a couple of news items concerning the European
heat treating market. Italian furnace builder CIEFFE just landed an enormous order
from commercial heat treater SHU in Ulm, Germany. The order is for a number of
furnaces and more importantly a number of completely different styles of furnacesunfortunately we are not at liberty to tell you how many furnaces or the types. This
is the most recent development between CIEFFE and SHU a relationship which goes
back over 20 years. SHU in our opinion is the largest single location commercial
heat treater in the world. Doksan Heat Treatment of Ankara, Turkey will shortly
be one of the few commercial heat treaters in the country able to offer vacuum
carburizing capabilities. This if a fairly new company which currently has batch IQ,
Induction and Vacuum equipment but it has been a goal of the owner Mr. Gurkan
Genkler for some time to also be able to have vacuum carburizing capacity. His
dream has come true and shortly he will have two systems in house. Speaking of
ThermProcess we are not nearly finished our coverage and over the next few days
we will have a number of more photos and news items about the show.
PhoenixTM now have a “hot box” system for monitoring part temperatures through
a carburizing cycle including in the oil quench. "Carburizing in an integrated quench
(IQ) furnace is a common heat treatment process for the manufacture of gears, etc.,
and oil is the most frequently used quench media. During the oil quench, products in
the batch can sometimes experience distortion problems which may have several
causes including oil flow patterns, temperature variations, etc. Monitoring the
temperature profile throughout the complete cycle at various depths within the
product and locations around the batch can generate valuable problem solving data.
However monitoring part temperature from a data logger external to the furnace is
not possible, so the PhoenixTM Oil Quench system, which is able to travel
throughout the process with the products, can provide the solution. The PhoenixTM
TS12 Series Oil Quench System (Patent Pending GB1509136.6) uses a multichannel, high temperature data logger protected by a thermal barrier which has a
two part insulation system. The inner thermal barrier is completely sealed to prevent
oil reaching the data logger. The outer insulation layer provides additional heat
protection in the furnace, but is sacrificed during the oil quench. The system is
designed with enough thermal capacity to go through the complete heat treatment
cycle including the oil quench and subsequent wash process. The PhoenixTM ‘Hot
Box’ system underwent multiple trials in the test center of IWT (Germany) where
the data collected has been incorporated in an upcoming research project. To see a
video of the system in action go to" https://goo.gl/ewsCvm June 22/2015

facility at 348 Millennium Drive, this new 126,000-square-foot facility will be set up
to produce the one piece 737 MAX and two piece 777X lip skins, the leading edge of
the nacelle - the pod-like structure that houses the aircraft's engine". Bottom line is
that GKN is adding a bunch of stuff in Columbia, SC and this includes new heat
treating capacity. DMP CryoSystems which offers some "funky" heat treating
systems including cryo/temper furnaces recently booked an order from a precision
ball and roller bearing manufacturer in the northeast U.S. "This brings the number
online at this facility to eight. The first two CryoFurnaces were purchased to help
reduce handling costs associated with multiple temper cycles. The ramp and soak
capabilities of the programmable controller coupled with the heating and cooling
ability of the equipment allow for double and triple temper cycles from a single
recipe. The first temper is performed, and the chamber cools to an ambient
temperature and then soaks. The second temper is simply a function of the next
segment in the recipe"

Ipsen Press Release. "In the complex world of thermal processing, nothing is
more important than validating one’s equipment to ensure uniformity, reliability and
repeatability. One of the first steps in the validation process is tuning the
proportional-integral-derivative (PID) settings in the controller to ensure that the
temperature of the furnace is stable, responsive and minimizes overshooting during
a heating cycle. By successfully utilizing PID tuning, users can ensure the furnace
reaches and maintains the desired set point temperature, thus achieving optimal
results and completing a vital step for the performance of Temperature Uniformity
Surveys (TUS) and System Accuracy Tests (SAT). In a recent blog post, PID Tuning
as First Step for Preparing for TUS and SAT, Ipsen experts discuss several key steps
for tuning the PID settings, as well as examine how these three settings –
proportional, integral and derivative – relate to each other and impact the desired
outcome. Find out how to tune the PID controller at http://bit.ly/PIDTuning. Ipsen’s

"The impact of the oil/gas slowdown in drilling and fracking activity is being felt
immensely throughout the southwest region. This are relies greatly on energy
production and the oil/gas sector is a major portion of this sector. The trickle down
effect impacts not only the OEM manufacturers of oil/gas equipment, but many
other sectors of the economy are affected such as reduced overflow work for
commercial heat treaters, hotel vacancies, fewer housing sales, lower restaurant
traffic, overall consumer spending. Oilfield services companies are seeing a large
reduction in workforce and are calling in their trucks and other field equipment due
to inactivity. The opinion out there is that the return to drilling and production will
be a slow, eventual event over the next year or two.
There are positive sectors in the area such as aerospace and consumer goods such
as sporting goods and personal use hand tools and electric power tools. There
seems to be more emphasis on the upgrade of existing equipment or used
equipment compared to a large uptick in new equipment. Plans for expansion or
relocation of several heat treat departments or facilities are in the works across the
region and that is exciting. Broadly, it appears that capital spending is in
infrastructure such as highways and bridges. Due to the massive flooding in the
region throughout May, this spending may continue to increase. Heat treating
related purchases in capital equipment for the remainder of 2015 appear to be at a
moderate level with the energy sector tending to be on a very slow recovery pace.

Amazing vacuum furnaces part 5. Janusz kowalewski of ald-dynatech continues
with his series about vacuum furnaces with this article talking about leaks in vacuum
furnaces.
"Until now, I have presented how important the vacuum furnaces
are to the heat treatment industry. Today, we will discuss one of
common event that is influencing negatively a vacuum furnace
performance: air and water leaks into a vacuum chamber.Leaks to
vacuum chambers (air / water leaks) cost thousands of dollars,
creates countless technical problems for the furnace operators.
There are two leaks that coexists in any vacuum system: the real
and virtual leak. Real Leak is any path through the wall of a
vacuum chamber that allows the air/gas to pass through. The
Virtual leak is a source of gas in vacuum system that acts like a leak
in that gas is trapped in a tight crevice, blind holes, porous welds
and leaks out over a long period of time. (Source: AMS2769B) The
root cause of these leaks is usually a manufacturing defect within
the material or a lack of complying with good vacuum practice.
The below graph is presenting a both leaks. On the Internet there
are thousands of articles regarding leak rates measure technique
and suggestion how to find a vacuum leaks.
Ones of the most
difficult to find leaks are:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Cracks on casting gas valves that leaks only in open position.
Water leaks through welds.
Power feedthrous leaking only under high temperature
Gas piping for cooling or process gases under high pressure. (Venturi effect)
Pneumatic actuators leaks only in specific positions
Thermocouples shield leaks (ceramic or moly covers connection).

Monday Morning Briefing. We will start off in Cleveland where we see that
commercial heat treater KoAlwalski Heat Treating (which by the way is
celebrating 40 years in business) recently added 3 large N2 tempering systems with
the largest being 60 x 48 x 96". The 3 will add a combined additional daily capacity
of 150,000 #'s of controlled atmosphere heat set flattening / stress relieve /
tempering. In Kendalville, Indiana Dependable Metal Treating who specializes in
batch II processing is pretty close to finishing their addition of some more Surface
Combustion Super 30 Allcase furnaces. Speaking of adding batch IQ capacity Metex
Heat Treat in Brampton, Canada is also adding some more batch IQ capacity. Metex
recently ordered a 6,000 pound/hour mesh belt furnace line, a very elaborate
Induction Hardening system and a bunch of other equipment-we lose track
www.themonty.com
The furnace insulation, heating element and almost all other components within the
furnace will be negatively influence by excessive leak rate. The most effective
method to find leak is the Helium Mass Spectrometer. Leak test should be only
performed after burn out cycle is performed and furnace is cold, clean, degassed,
and empty. To learn more read AMS 2769 B. Paragraph 3.1.1.3 leak checking
procedure.
Oven builder Wisconsin Oven issued this press release recently. We have to say
that not many companies are selling equipment to the oil and gas
industries these days. Wisconsin Oven shipped a multi-zone
conveyor oven for melting high-temperature polymer into a steel
ring that houses electronic components. Steel rings are loaded on
the conveyor belt two rows wide for a heating time of 48 minutes.
The oven, which is destined for a company in the oil and gas
industry, features four independent heating zones that allow the
customer to rearrange the oven in various configurations to obtain
their desired heating zone lengths. It is capable of processing 25
parts per hour and has a maximum temperature rating of 450°C
(842°F). Aren't you glad you aren't Brazilian these days? We're
actually being faceitious as Brazil is one of our favorite countries in
the world but if you are a heat treater in Brazil these days things
aren't good with very few furnaces being sold and commercial
heat treating being very, very slow. We know of several
commercial heat treaters and furnace builders in the country who
are laying people off these days. Things might be rough down in
Texas because of the downturn in the oil and gas industries but
not everybody is sitting back and waiting for things to get better.
National Heat Treat in Houston is planning on adding some more
batch IQ capacity.
Fairly recently the Bodycote plant in Conyers, Georgia had a fairly serious fire
which started in a quench tank which had water in it. Sounds like the fire was so
serious that the plant will be closed for several months until it can be rebuilt-while
we have no figures to back this up our belief is that quench oil tanks are the number
one cause of fires in heat treats. Speaking of Bodycote the company continues to do
very well with the stock currently trading at roughly 742 pence with most stock
analysts recommending the company as a hold or a buy. June 15/2015

Vacuum History. Janusz Kowalewski Managing Director/CEO at ALD-Dynatech
Furnaces in India is always a “good read”. June 12/2015
"Vacuum word come from the Latin adjective vacuus for vacant and describes an
empty physical space. The 2,500 years ago the Greek philosopher Demokrit thought
the first time about and empty space (vacuum), but the famous Aristoteles denied
such an idea and he thought about a special matter, what he called Ether. In the
middle of the 17th century Torricelli made the first vacuum with mercury filled
bended glass tube. Later Pascale prove of the possibility of vacuum with his famous
test “vide dans le vide”, what means empty in the empty. Otto von Guerike made a
test with two hemispheres with a diameter of 42cm. The sealing was made of
leather soaked with turpentine and wax. The evacuation was done by an air pump,
developed by Otto von Guericke. The air pressure within the ball was ~ 100 mbar
(75 Torr). In total 16 horses try to pull the both hemisphere, but they could not
succeed, as they could not overcome the 13,850 N.

SSI Sales Meeting. Controls company SSI based in Cincinnati, Ohio who is
celebrating their 20 year in business is currently in the midst of a two day sales
meeting which includes all of their reps from North America. As a participant we at
“the Monty” have these photos. The first photo below shows reps and employees in
front of the new SSI building which brings their total space to 26,000 square feet. A
frequent topic in the heat treating industry is the fact that good, qualified heat
treaters are very hard to find and this is reflected in the fact that a large percentage
of people in the industry are in it because fathers, mothers or grandparents were
heat treaters before them-SSI is reasonably typical of this. In one of these pictures

What's It Worth? We haven't played the "what's it worth" game for a while but
this item that we recently ran across is rather interesting. What you are looking at is
an AFC-Holcroft 2 row pusher furnace with temper, oil quench and all the
standard items associated with a large pusher system. It was built in 2000 and
remains in very good condition-so what is it worth? On the plus side it is in excellent
condition, cost over $2 million USD when new and AFC-Holcroft is without a doubt
one of the premier manufacturers of pusher systems in the world. However there is
one overriding minus to the system which is that it is a two row pusher. 20 years
ago every auto components plant in the world had large multi row furnaces but that
style has largely fallen out of fashion in favor of single row units. Combine this with
the horrendous costs associated with removal, shipping and possibly storage costs
and you end up with a very limited potential market. So unfortunately we would
estimate the value of this system at between $200,000 and $400,000 although we
are probably being generous on the upper end estimate. June 4/2015

Accurate Brazing. Probably the best thing we can do to give you some background
on Accurate Brazing is to steal this summary of the company from their website
http://www.accuratebrazing.com/home.html “Accurate Brazing is a full service
vacuum brazing and heat treating shop that was incorporated in 1989. Locations
include Goffstown New Hampshire, Greenville South Carolina, and Manchester
Connecticut . All locations are equipped to handle your most difficult brazing and
heat treating application. Accurate Brazing is a part of the Aalberts Group which
employs approximately 6,000 people world-wide with annual sales of nearly 2 billion
Euros”. The long and the short of it is that Accurate is a fine operation with some
really top notch, state of the art equipment including13 "State of the Art"
Abar/Ipsen Metalmaster & Turbo Treater Vacuum Furnaces and three large GM
units. They make our top news item today because they just two weeks ago finished
installing a second Ipsen 6,000 pound capacity unit. Add up the number of vacuums
the company has, the size of each and the age and it equals a darn big commercial
shop with some pretty nice equipment.
Also we should give you an update on the explosion the company suffered back in
April of this year at their location in South Carolina (a summary of which is below).
Accurate and local authorities reacted quickly to this issue with the result that there
were no injuries and the SC location is now operating at 75% capacity and expects
to be 100% shortly.
“Business is back to normal along Garlington Road after a brief evacuation because
of a gas leak Friday morning. Mauldin Fire Chief Russell Sapp said the leak was at
Accurate Brazing, which is behind Graybar Electric. Sapp said as of about 11 a.m.
there was no more danger to the area. Business were reopened, except for the
building where the explosion happened. An engineer who works for Accurate Brazing
told WYFF News 4's Allyson Powell that the top of a tank of argon gas blew off due

attendance and we are more than happy to share our unbiased opinion of the show.
With more than 300 exhibitors the show is enormous and this is heightened by the
fact that the booth size is far larger than most shows with some exhibits being the
size of small homes and we are talking North American homes. The show boasts
that more than half of the attendees are from outside of Germany which we have no
reason to doubt and it is certainly no surprise that European industry suppliers are
in the majority with Asian and North American suppliers having a presence but
reasonably small. Every heat treating technology available is on display, the show is
fascinating but in our opinion almost too large. Düsseldorf is a very impressive city
well worth the visit but unfortunately the local hotels take the opportunity to take
advantage of visitors during large trade shows with the result that hotel rooms are
literally three times the normal price which is a bone of contention to many. Great
city, excellent well organized show but very expensive for what you get. June

to pressure buildup. He said the top of the tank flew about a 100 yards in the air
and came back down. No one was hurt, but this did leave a 30-foot hole in side of
the building. The engineer told Powell the tank was filled Thursday. Sapp said he
does not believe the explosion had anything to do with the tank being filled. He said
he thinks the problem was caused by a faulty pressure valve. Sapp said once the
argon was on the ground it evaporated into the air”. June 2/2015

Low Pressure Carburizing By Janusz Kowalewski. "Demand for a higher quality
and dissatisfaction with the existing vacuum carburizing processes were the main
reasons for development of a new carburizing technology called - Low Pressure
Carburizing. The advancement was due to the following achievements:






Better understanding of thermo reaction of Acetylene during carburizing
process
Utilization of computer simulator to control equipment and thermo-chemical
cycles.
Advancement in high pressure gas quench technology (faster cooling speed,
more reliable equipment, Nitrogen, Helium gas used for cooling)
Continuous decrease of vacuum equipment initial cost and development of
multi-chamber systems
Development of precise gas flow control, nozzle distribution and hot zone
material optimization.
Development of new steels (see below table) that requires a lower cooling
speed and improved life cycles of gears and other parts used by automotive
and aircraft industries.

To avoid tar/sooth formation, a vacuum carburizing process must
be precisely established and maintain during the cycle. The main
parameters influencing carburizing process are mass flow of carbon
(gas flow rate), carburizing temperature, vacuum pressure,
carburizing and diffusion durations stages. The parts in single
chamber furnaces are usually heated by convection heating - up
750°C (1400°F) at 1.5 Bar Nitrogen pressure, follow by further heating in vacuum
by radiation up to carburizing temperature. Time of heating and holding depends
on particular cross-section, weight and density of load. The vacuum carburizing
temperature depends on the alloy steel being treated and is typically between 930°
C (1706°F) to 1050°°C (1922°F). When carburizing temperature is reached the
carburizing gas is admitted into heating zone from numbers of jets located evenly
throughout the entire hot zone. The number and location of carburizing nozzles
www.themonty.com
In the early stage of development in late 1960’s, vacuum carburizing furnaces were
using Methane (CH) as a carburizing gas. Carburizing technology base on Methane
requires higher temperature and pressure up to 13 mbar (10 Torr). The process has
not provided case uniformity or repeatability needed for parts specifications.
Propane popularity in 1970 as carburizing gas was due to ease of transportation and
worldwide availability. The major drawbacks of propane are tendency to create
soot and tar because of thermal dissociation difficulty, poor holes penetration and
problem with carburizing case uniformity in dense pack loads. The process with
propane was run at 200–400 mbar (150–300 Torr). The environmental awareness,
and a high furnace maintenance requirement was inspiration to develop a new
process without the above problems. Russian scientists Krilow, Yumatow and
Kubatow developed in 1979 a carburizing process using acetylene in vacuum
furnace. The scientists developed process when acetylene is used
for carburizing between 9 mbar (7 Torr) to 931 mbar (698 Torr)
pressure. The Japanese company IHI (JH) developed in 1999 the
low pressure vacuum carburizing with below < 3-mbar pressure.
The latest achievements in vacuum carburizing are technologies
using Acetylene (CH) for carburizing fewer than 20 mbar (15 Torr)
pressures. The thermal dissociation of Acetylene last several
seconds, enough to react with the hot load surface but not enough
to create soot or tar on the furnace elements. The new low
pressure vacuum carburizing is applied to a wide range of
components from tiny precision parts to automotive gears and
transmission components for aerospace, construction and machine
industries.
ensures proper carburizing gas inflows and uniform charge penetration.
carburizing process is automatically control by PLC/SCADA system.
The
Diffusion reduces the carbon concentration on the surface and allowing for further
carburization. The carburizing and diffusion stages are time controlled. The rapid
and continue flow of carbon (gas flow) and higher process temperature shorten the
carburizing process. As of today there is no sensor that could effectively control and
measure carburizing case formation. Entire process is design by empirical knowledge."
June 1/2015
www.themonty.com
Acetylene starts to decompose rapidly above 500ºC (932ºF). As the temperature
increases decomposition of CH accelerates to form atomic carbon. Hydrogen is a byproduct of this decomposition resulting in the reduction of the metal oxides on the
surface of components. Reduction of oxides on the surface leads to better
penetration of carbon into the surface. The carburizing process can be continues
(single pulse) or repeatable carburizing (boost) and diffusion steps (multi pulses).
At the first stage the inflow of carburizing gas provide a very high concentration of
carbon that can be absorbed by austenite. At the diffusion stage the inflow of
carburizing gas is cut-off and replace by Nitrogen to keep constant partial pressure
to prevent alloys sublimation. The free carbon atoms are allowed to diffuse into the
part.

Description: Electrically heated Ammonia Dissociator suitable for supplying up to
3000 CFH of atmosphere with a composition of 75% Hydrogen and 25% Nitrogen.
This atmosphere is obtained by cracking anhydrous ammonia vapor in a catalyst
filled vessel maintained at a temperature of 1700°F to 1850°F. Incoming ammonia
pressure is reduced before retort entry. At the outlet of the retort the hot
dissociated ammonia passes through a dry cooler where the gas is cooled to near
room temperature. It then passes through a flowmeter and on to the consuming
device. This dissociator includes a Sargeant & Wilbur Ammonia vaporizer. This
dissociator is provided with two (2)catalyst filled heat resisting alloy retorts. The
retorts are mounted within the insulated dissociator heating chamber. The heating
chamber consists of heavy Mullite T-Slot tiles. Retorts are heated with Sinuouswound Nichrome Ribbon Heating elements which are mounted in the tile slots. The
element tails and studs extend through the rear wall of the dissociator. Elements
can be removed throught the rear wall without having to unpack furnace insulation
etc. A step-down transformer (480V to 240V 112.5 KVA) is included. Manuals and
drawings are also included. Very good condition. Asking $29,500.00 USD each.
