Third Integrated Robotics Vacuum Furnace System by ECM for Increasing Heat Treat Automation Demands
ECM USA has partnered with the prominent global manufacturer, SEW-EURODRIVE, to commission a modular NANO vacuum furnace system completely integrated with advanced automation for their Lyman, South Carolina facility. It is the third ECM NANO system with integrated robotics and advanced capabilities for the US heat treat market within the last two years. This 6-chamber, 20-bar quench NANO vacuum furnace system provides maximum flexibility and integration utilizing the addition of 16 tempering positions, advanced solvent-based washer (both oil and water-based contaminants), and robotic workload assembly/disassembly.
