Global Engineering in practice
In today’s industrial landscape, success depends not only on technical expertise but also on effective intercultural collaboration. This current project between HPI and a U.S. customer demonstrates how international teamwork can turn ambitious ideas into reality.
Compact Coil Furnace (CCF)
To improve the economic and ecological performance of industrial heat treatment processes, there is an increasing focus on energy optimized plant concepts. The Compact Coil Furnace (CCF) combines modern technology with high efficiency and sets new standards in the heat treatment of individual coils.
Global leader in Aluminum plate heat treatment
Innovation, precision, and decades of experience have made EBNER the world’s technology leader in the heat treatment of aluminum plates for the aerospace industry.
Innovative annealing technologiesfor wire rod and drawn wire
Hot-rolled and Stelmor-cooled wire rod are essential starting materials for a number of cold forming processes. The first heat treatment a coil of wire rod usually undergoes is a spheroidization anneal, where the as-cast hot-rolled microstructure is optimized for additional cold forming. The decisive factors for this process are the ability to precisely control the temperature and the composition of the atmosphere.
Solution anneals, partial anneals and more
In this interview, Markus Gangl, Senior Product Manager Aluminum, explains how EBNER Industrieofenbau uses state-of-the-art furnace technologies to accurately control these processes, which processes are used for which alloys and why the right combination of temperature control, atmosphere flow design and quenching technology makes the difference between run-of-the-mill and peak performance.
