What is a vacuum furnace, How does it function, And how is it used?
Teledyne Hastings is working to expand our throughput so that we can better serve our customers by meeting increased demand while decreasing lead times. Over the last several months, we have added and improved calibration systems in both our vacuum and flow production areas. We have also purchased a new vacuum furnace which increases our production capacity. In this blog, we will describe what ...

Condensate-free debinding with vacuum furnaces
Today techniques like pressing, rapid prototyping, powder metallurgy, siliconization and sintering are widely used production methods. Sintering, for example, is only the last step of a near-net-shape fabrication technology. Many processes, such as metal injection molding (MIM) for example, require a debinding step prior to the actual sintering. For metal injection molding a small part of a ...

CDP® wearplate: Wear Protection Solution for Flaker Aspiration Cyclone-
A leading producer of canola-based products trusted the CastoLab® division of Eutectic Canada to manufacture two new flaker aspiration cyclones made out of CDP® wearplate. The OEM parts made out of standard steel, were unable to resist the high intensity production environment and showed early signs of erosion and abrasion after only one year of service. Our CastoLab® Services ...

Spare Parts
Screw Conditioner Conditioner is in fact a screw blender where additives such as steam and other liquids can be added to the material mixture prior to entering the pelletizing chamber. Conditioner plays important roles as the following reasons: 1. Lubricate the material for faster production rate and reducing energy cost. 2. To extend die life by avoiding extra friction. 3. To rupture fully ...

Gas Blending and Working With Flow Ratios –Part B
What is the right way to deliver precise ratios of gas flows? Many applications require a fixed ratio of two or more gas flows. Setting each of the flows independently is certainly one approach. But in cases where you need to change the total flow while keeping the ratio constant, the “set each flow” procedure becomes cumbersome. So for applications like combustion control, gas ...

Knowledge about TZM Alloy
TZM material is an alloy of 0.50% Titanium, 0.08% Zirconium and 0.02% Carbon with the balance Molybdenum and is typically manufactured by powder metallurgy or arc-casting processes. It has a higher recrystallization temperature, higher creep strength & hardness, and higher tensile strength than pure molybdenum. In addition, TZM exhibits good thermal conductivity, low vapor pressure, good ...

Heat treatment at low pressures
High temperature vacuum furnaces are used for heat treatment of samples at low pressure (down to 10-6 mbar) and under partial gas atmospheres. In the bottom loader version the bottom is lowered and driven out of the furnace. It then pivots forward to permit easy loading. This design makes the useable volume accessible from all sides and allows for exact placement of the sample thermocouples which ...

Thermal deoilers - Thermal deoiling of evaporator coils for air conditioners
The Problem A major Air Conditioning company was mandated to have an alternate technology for degreasing evaporator fins. They had, until recently, been deoiling metal parts in a conveyorized solvent based vapor degreasing line, but the state environmental agency mandated that the line be shut down on a certain date due to the excessive water and air pollution it generated. The company had ...

Surface Engineering & Thin Film Nanotechnology
Nanotechnology represents a new frontier in research and development (R&D) across a broad spectrum of human endeavours. Though concerned with the miniscule, the scope of nanotechnology is undeniably vast. However, most of the exciting nanoscience research being conducted is in a purely contemplative phase – or at least an extended period of prototypical development. The Reality of ...

High vacuum soldering and brazing with hood furnaces
Nowadays many electronic components, for example devices used in satellites or aircraft, have to withstand challenging environments such as vacuum or extremely high temperatures. To manufacture reliable electronic components like these a connection between dissimilar materials is required. Connecting dissimilar materials This connection can be metal-to-metal or even insulator-to-metal. It has to ...

Selecting the Right Air Duct Cleaning Tool for the Job Part 2 - Cleaning Tools for Commercial/Industrial Projects
Commercial air duct cleaning is different than residential air duct cleaning and presents a different set of challenges. The HVAC systems are bigger and more complex. This complexity requires even more tools and equipment. Like residential, there is no one magic commercial cleaning tool. Like residential, selecting the right cleaning tool is important because 95% of the cost of air duct cleaning ...
