Customer directive

Our customer wanted to create an indexing single part flow inert atmosphere production furnace system to match, and seamlessly integrate into, the customer’s entire existing manufacturing process at a production rate of 45 seconds part to part. The customer’s then existing process included inefficient batch furnace staging of parts at this point in the process.


Description

The DTI-1171 custom continuous scorching system is used in the manufacturing of disc brake pads. The system utilizes a custom infrared heating fixture designed specific for the application. The heating fixture utilizes short wave IR lamps.

The conveying system is a stainless steel mesh belt. The conveying system utilizes a VFD to provide production flexibility. The system also includes an ambient forced air cooling chamber immediately after the scorching chamber.
