Modern Heat Treat expands capability with AFC-Holcroft furnace

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.

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)

Industriepolitik 2026: „Raus aus dem Jammertal, rauf auf den Lösungsweg“

Der Wirtschaftsverband Stahl- und Metallverarbeitung (WSM) fordert konkrete Sofortmaßnahmen zur Stärkung der Wettbewerbsfähigkeit: Aussetzung des nationalen CO2-Preises für die Industrie und Abschaffung des Solidaritätszuschlags. „Wir müssen raus aus dem Jammertal, rauf auf den Lösungsweg”, betont WSM-Hauptgeschäftsführer Christian Vietmeyer. Beide Maßnahmen seien kurzfristig umsetzbar und würden 2026 direkt wirken.

KI-gesteuerter autonomer Schleifroboter beschleunigt das Entgraten dicker Blechteile

Dank des EasyGrinder konnte Minerd & Sons die Lieferzeit von zwei Wochen auf nur drei Tage verkürzen – ein Durchbruch in Produktivität und Lieferzuverlässigkeit. Das führende regionale Stahlservicezentrum in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, hat die Endbearbeitung von plasma- und autogengeschnittenen Blechteilen durch den Einsatz des EasyGrinder, dem autonomen Schleifroboter von Teqram, deutlich beschleunigt. Das System bearbeitet dicke Bleche vollautomatisch, ohne Programmierung oder Teaching, und liefert gleichbleibende Qualität bei deutlich höherem Durchsatz.
