The Thermatec Phoenix 6 bar pressure quench vacuum furnace is a recent acquisition and is now fully online. This custom designed unit allows Summitglow to rapidly treat small batch quantities of tool steel, highspeed steel and many other speciality applications, such as medical components. The furnace is loaded vertically so that, where the straightness of the components is of paramount importance, they can be treated more easily.

The vacuum furnace is a PC based system, which allows the process to be tracked accurately. It can produce graphs and charts of the entire treatment, or selected highlights of it while the work is in progress.
