CAN-ENG Furnaces International Limited has been contracted to commission a turnkey 36 feet diameter ‘pancake’ style rotary hearth furnace for a leading North American aerospace supplier.
The open-hearth configuration allows for flexible loading and uniform heating. The furnace will be used in the production of large fixed wing aircraft titanium and nickel-based alloy closed-die structure forgings.
The furnace system features an advanced low NOx combustion system designed to meet the most stringent environmental and temperature uniformity requirements. A special dual door design provides the customer with significant flexibility for ‘forging to press’ manipulation within their existing plant layout. The system is capable of processing up to a 250,000 pound load capacity in a 24/7 production environment. The furnace system complies with thermal performance requirements laid out in AMS2750E and integrates a low shrinkage ceramic fibre lining, unique rotating hearth drive and sealing system. The system is due to be commissioned in the third quarter of 2017.
CAN-ENG is a global provider and leader of state of the art thermal processing systems, headquartered in Niagara Falls, ON, Canada.
