In support of its continued growth, Modern Heat Treat, a commercial heat treating operation located in Richland Hills, Texas (USA), has added several additional UBQ (Universal Batch Quench) furnaces and companion equipment to its installed base. Several new equipment orders were placed with AFC-Holcroft months apart throughout the year in 2018, adding similar equipment to that already in operation in their facility.
Modern Heat Treat have benefitted from the modular, flexible UBQ design with the ability to add new equipment to their facility incrementally, creating full production cells that utilize existing controls. Individual furnaces can be added to the operation independently, and the same can be idled then restarted easily as needed for maintenance service, changes in process or production. “These large capacity UBQ furnaces provide Modern Heat Treat with a distinct advantage in the market, since the equipment is scalable to meet their need for flexibility,” says Tracy Dougherty, Vice President of Sales at AFC-Holcroft. “AFC-Holcroft is proud to be a part of the continued expansion and growth of Modern Heat Treat.” (Source: AFC-Holcroft)

Rethink:Metallurgy: Steel under the influence of trade measures: politics rule over the market

The European steel industry – mills as well as distributors and steel users – faces a market that is no less than bizarre. For years already, cheap imports from Asia were one problem. On top of that came the duties on steel imported to the USA. Europe had to act, and it did, through safeguard measures and CBAM fees. This is affecting the development of steel supply and the selling prices of steel products in an artificial way. It’s not the balance of supply and demand that defines the market; it’s politics.
