Optimizing the Digital Shop Floor
Digital manufacturing is not just a ‘Matrix-like’ sequence of computer codes and programming magic. The gear industry cannot snap its collective finger and become a frontrunner on IIoT solutions overnight. There is a very extensive ‘to-do’ list in order to bring all your mechanical, electrical, and smart interfaces into a single, cohesive package.
Super IQ gas carburizing does more and costs less
Super IQ® from SECO/VACUUM runs clean, cool and safe, with NO flames and NO endogas. It can achieve temps over 2000°F to allow you to do more. Yet it’s surprisingly affordable and costs less to operate and maintain. It uses standard quench oils and even integrates with existing IQ loaders.

Low Pressure Carburizing of Gears
Solar Atmospheres provides low pressure carburizing (LPC) that significantly increases the surface hardness/strength of steel parts for improved friction and wear. Performing LPC in a vacuum furnace eliminates oxygen and prevents IGO (intergranular oxidation) that is inherent in atmospheric carburizing, resulting in clean parts with less distortion reducing post process finishing operations, and costs.
