An innovative partnership: New standards for forging stock
Gautschi Engineering GmbH and HPI High Performance Industrietechnik GmbH supply a complete forging stock production line to Bharat Forge Aluminium USA.
Furnace modernization.
Logan Aluminum has installed three EBNER pusher furnaces over the years, some of which have been running since the early 90s.
A new era of heat treatment.
Aurubis Stolberg, a leading manufacturer of high-precision copper and copper alloy strip and rod, has modernized its production with a new HICON® bell annealer facility. With this facility, which went into operation in February 2024, the company has taken an important step forward in implementing its decarbonization strategy.
STC Heat Treatment Furnaces
A protective atmosphere roller type short cycle annealing furnace, generally referred to as an STC furnace, is primarily used to bright anneal products such as bar, wire, and copper pipe, improving the uniformity of their structures and enhancing their ability to undergo mechanical processing.
New Dimensions
With the opening of the new HyForge casting facility at their aluminum recycling plant in Rackwitz, Germany, Hydro Aluminium has passed another milestone. This forty million Euro investment is in response to the automotive industry’s effort to decarbonize, and increases Hydro’s capacity for recycled aluminum scrap.
Continuing a successful partnership
In October 2022, Acciaierie Valbruna S.p.A. placed an order with EBNER Thermal Solutions S.r.l. for delivery of a new heat treatment facility for their Vicenza works. Only eleven months later, the facility went into operation.
Heat Treatment Technology for Wire Rod and Drawn Wire.
The first time a coil of wire rod is heat treated it usually undergoes a spheroidization anneal, where the as-cast hot-rolled microstructure is optimized for additional cold forming. The excellent temperature uniformity that is achieved in HICON/H2® furnaces is essential for successfully annealing wire coils heat treated above the Ac1 temperature, particularly with highly-alloyed grades.
Copper: A Material with Potential.
Flexible EBNER facilities for every type of semifinished product provide our customers with the highest efficiency and best possible quality.
FAMETEC sets new standards.
Based on the research goals of EBNER Industrieofenbau GmbH, a unique furnace to grow sapphire single crystals was successfully developed early in 2012.
The Hazelett aluminum strip casting process
Aluminum strip and sheet are manufactured from cast slabs or strip in either a charged process or a continuous casting process. Hazelett’s process of choice is continuous casting, in which a Hazelett twin-belt casting facility is used.
