Vacuum Furnace Systems, Heat Treat Robotics & Service for North, Central & South America
As a leading global industrial vacuum furnace manufacturer, ECM's mission is to design and manufacture high quality low pressure vacuum carburizing, carbonitriding, brazing, sintering, and induction melting furnaces and automated systems in North, Central and South America (click here for more applications).
Our vacuum furnace systems benefit from more than 50 years of engineering & design expertise and advanced manufacturing techniques.
Our field service and aftermarket services ensure smooth installation along with unparalleled training and aftermarket parts availability.
Nano Maintenance Rendering - easy and efficient
ECM vacuum furnaces use cold wall technology that enables higher temperature treatments and easy integration into machining lines. This allows for a higher throughput while preventing inter-granular oxidation during carburizing - thanks to the absence of oxygen.
- • Easily replace batch IQ and/or sealed quench systems
- • Electric heating, cold-wall technology
- • No fire hazards or open flames
- • Minimize energy usage and reduce CO2 emissions
- • Increase production & process repeatability
- • Improve metallurgical properties
Vacuum also improves employee safety by removing the risk of fire hazards and open flames generated during the process.
Furthermore, thanks to the higher productivity and minimized energy loss with vacuum technology, you will see an increase in production efficiency which directly influences environmental standards and green initiatives.
ECM USA provides industrial vacuum furnaces for a wide range of applications, including: Brazing, Sintering, Carburizing & Carbonitriding, LPC for EV (electric vehicle) Transmissions, Vapor Phase Aluminization/Aluminizing (VPA/VPC/FIC), Vacuum Induction Melting, Vacuum Arc Remelting (VIM/VAR), Tempering, Vacuum Purged Gas Nitriding (VPGN), Ferritic Nitrocarburizing (FNC) & more.
