Aluminum Aging and Annealing Furnaces
Comprehensive tailor-made solutions for the aluminum industry
SECO/WARWICK is a world leader and innovative manufacturer of Aging and Annealing Furnaces. Drawing on our decades of experience, we offer complete, custom engineered solutions for your aluminum processes. SECO/WARWICK’s Aging and Annealing furnaces utilize high velocity convection fans to ensure even and efficient heating in all furnace and load configurations.
/ Mass Flow design, especially for wire, profile, and foil (less than 100microns) annealing, where the surface of the load is vulnerable to damages during high atmosphere flow.
/ Furnaces for T77 process heat treatment.
/ Continuous roller hearth furnaces for mass production.
/ Scrap dryers.
/ Stress relieving furnaces.
SECO/WARWICK is manufacturer of chamber aging furnaces meeting most up to date strict AMS and CQI-9 requirements, both for pyrometry and material. Along with the furnace we deliver control system complying to AMS and NADCAP certification adaptation. All the provided furnaces are tailored made and sized to Customers’ load baskets and treated parts. Dedicated loading cars facilitate loading process and can be used for continuous process with two door furnace construction.
T77 aging furnaces allow for multi-stage and multi-ramp processes guarantying process repeatability and reliability. Furnace design allows for +/-10% air flow uniformity in the entire furnace. Cold air injection system is provided for low temperature heating.
All the offered furnaces are lined with long lasting and effective mineral insulation.
SECO/WARWICK can provide low cost crap drying furnaces in Class 2 or 3 with the hearth adapted for container loading with the use of forklift. Furnaces provide simple recirculation systems with the use of centrifugal fans and water vapor evacuations system.
Heating system is based on compact low cost heating elements easy to replace. Control cabinet is installed on the furnace and equipped with simple controller for process parameters input.
The doors are opened manually.
