This new furnace equipment will be integrated into an existing complete UBQ furnace line purchased previously from AFC-Holcroft, and adds an additional 3,500 pound gross load capacity to the existing line. They have also invested in a new 1,400 °F gas fired UBT temper furnace for their McKean, Pennsylvania facility.
Peters’ Heat Treating has made significant investments in furnace technology to expand their production capability and gain entry into new markets. In 2014, Peters’ Heat Treating became first-time customers of AFC-Holcroft, and have gone on to make additional investments in AFC-Holcroft equipment in subsequent years.
“This investment shows the continued commitment by Peters‘ Heat Treating to invest in the latest technology and we’re excited to be a part of it,” said Tracy Dougherty, Sales Manager at AFC-Holcroft.
This latest UBQ furnace will interface with existing tempering furnaces, spray-dunk washer, automated transfer car and an EZ™ Series endothermic gas generator and other companion equipment and offers the flexibility to heat treat a wide range of parts and a number of metallurgical processes.
