North American cutting tool manufacturer buys Seco/Vacuum furnace

A global manufacturer of cutting tools has purchased an additional vacuum temper furnace from Pennsylvania-based Seco/Vacuum (SVT), a Seco/Warwick company, for its North American manufacturing operations. The new furnace, which will be used for tempering and stress relieving metal parts, is part of the company’s growing manufacturing expansion and complements another commissioned earlier in 2019 at this facility.

A global manufacturer of cutting tools has purchased an additional vacuum temper furnace from Pennsylvania-based Seco/Vacuum (SVT), a Seco/Warwick company, for its North American manufacturing operations. The new furnace, which will be used for tempering and stress relieving metal parts, is part of the company’s growing manufacturing expansion and complements another commissioned earlier in 2019 at this facility.
The horizontal, front-loading furnace is purpose-built to accommodate the customer’s needs with an all-metal hot zone for clean vacuum processing. As with the earlier furnaces, one of which was installed at a different facility, the new furnace includes a convection fan and a pressurized gas quench for quick cooling. The repeat order is a testament to SVT’s on-time performance and the furnace meeting all promised parameters. The Seco/Visory team approach enables customers to navigate complex decision paths to achieve the most effective and efficient solution. Seco/Vacuum provides consultation, project engineering, installation, and aftermarket support from its Meadville PA, headquarters via the company’s Seco/Visory team consulting service. Seco/Visory is a unique, cost-free service for qualified companies. It allows heat treaters to examine their needs, evaluate equipment options appropriate to those needs, and make an informed decision with the help of SVT’s heat treatment experts. Each year Seco/Vacuum and its parent company, Seco/Warwick, build scores of vacuum furnaces for the global heat treating markets. (SECO/WARWICK S.A.)

Uniper und thyssenkrupp Uhde bündeln Kräfte für Schlüsseltechnologie der globalen Wasserstoffwirtschaft

Uniper und thyssenkrupp Uhde bündeln Kräfte für Schlüsseltechnologie der globalen Wasserstoffwirtschaft

thyssenkrupp Uhde und Uniper gehen eine strategische Partnerschaft ein, um eine zentrale Technologie für den globalen Wasserstoffhandel zur industriellen Reife zu bringen: den großtechnischen Ammoniak-Cracker. In einem Ammoniak-Cracker wird Ammoniak bei hoher Temperatur katalytisch in seine Bestandteile Wasserstoff und Stickstoff zerlegt und anschließend in einer Aufreinigung reiner Wasserstoff erzeugt. Gemeinsam wird hierfür im ersten Schritt eine Demonstrationsanlage mit einer Kapazität von 28 Tonnen Ammoniak pro Tag am Uniper-Standort Gelsenkirchen-Scholven errichtet. Die Anlage wird eine der ersten ihrer Art weltweit sein und soll u. a. als Grundlage für das geplante Wasserstoff-Importterminal in Wilhelmshaven dienen, wo die Technologie großindustriell in einem zweiten Schritt zur Anwendung kommen soll.
