Integration of Vacuum Gas and Oil Quenching Technologies
Both vacuum gas quenching and vacuum oil quenching are crucial processes in heat treatment. Some metals, such as D2, Cr12MoV, 4340, 30CrMnSiA, and 440C, sometimes require both vacuum gas quenching and vacuum oil quenching to achieve their target properties. SIMUWU’s dual-chamber vacuum oil quenching furnace integrates vacuum gas quenching functionality into the traditional oil quenching process, making the equipment more flexible and increasing production capacity.
Independent Chambers and Gas Modules
Traditional vacuum furnaces often require a choice between oil quenching and gas quenching. This dual-chamber furnace breaks this limitation:
- 1.Dual-chamber structural design: Independent heating and cooling chambers effectively prevent oil and gas contamination of heating elements, significantly improving equipment lifespan and maintenance efficiency.
- 2.Added gas quenching module: High-performance nozzles and high-speed fans are integrated above the cooling chamber. For high-alloy steels or thin-walled parts with extremely stringent deformation requirements, users can switch to gas quenching mode with a single click, utilizing high-pressure nitrogen for uniform cooling.
Core Technological Advantages
- 1. Excellent Cooling Uniformity: The optimized airflow circulation system ensures consistent cooling rates across all parts, significantly reducing quenching distortion.
- 2. Intelligent Control System: Equipped with a Siemens S7-1200 PLC, the latest automated monitoring platform, it can record pressure and temperature profiles in real time, meeting the stringent traceability requirements of the aerospace and automotive industries.
Industry Applications
This dual-fuel (oil and gas) vacuum furnace is ideal for mold manufacturing, precision bearings, gear machining, and medical device industries. It can handle carbon steel requiring extremely fast cooling rates and is also perfectly suited for the heat treatment of tool and die steels demanding high surface quality.
