May - The Monty Heat Treat News

• Hercules 1,000 lbs Capacity Parts Dumper into Syntron Automatic Feed System w/ Weight
Control and Livonia Portable 19” Wide Magnetic Feed Conveyor.
• Metro Loader - Includes a hydraulic tote dumper, parts hopper, two vibratory trays with
load cells. This unit is controlled by a computer and has proven to be an exceptionally
flexible and accurate parts loader. It can be installed so that one tray can be shuttled aside
in order to hand load the furnace.
• Hardening Furnace - Furnace hot zone is 144 inches from inner wall to drum center and is
capable of producing 1000 to 1200 lbs/hour of light gauge stampings running at a belt
speed of 14 “/min. and a loading density of 12 lbs/SF. The 48 inch wide belt is of fine closed
weave design in order to prevent part mixing. The full range of furnace belt adjustment is
10-20”/min. The furnace opening at the preheat has been closed down to about 2” because
the original part loading was 1” at Tinnerman. The overall height can be easily increased to
6” for commercial use.
The 14’ overall heated length is heated by 9 sealed radiant “U” tubes w/direct spark ignition
and all tubes have recuperators. The temperature operating range is 1475-1725˚F.
Maximum temperature is 1900˚F. There are two zones with Fanuc PLC2 Honeywell
Temperature Controllers, (2) Honeywell Oven Temperature Controllers, Yokogawa Computer
Monitoring System w/Satellite Monitoring Capability. Roof Mounted Axial Flow Recirculating
Fan, and Super Systems Oxygen Sensor and Control Box for carbon control.
Atmosphere: The furnace is currently set up for endothermic atmosphere. We can provide a
conversion to nitrogen methanol if required. Methane additions are provided and an
ammonia flowscope can be provided and desirable if one wants to be able to carbo-nitride
or carbo-austemper parts.
