The new Ipsen Titan furnace, on the other hand, fits in a garage and is especially user-friendly and energy-efficient.<br \/>\nWhen hardening metals &#8211; most often steel &#8211; their structure is altered by the application of heat followed by rapid cooling to increase their mechanical durability. <\/p>\n<p>Ipsen, the heat treatment experts from Kleve in Germany, now offer a compelling solution: the new Titan vacuum furnace. Its simple, compact construction and simple operation make  it make it ideal for a variety of applications and unusually mobile. This makes it the ideal tool for heat treatment service providers looking to expand their offering as well as for metal working operations in the automobile industry and  its and component suppliers breaking new ground in in-house heat treatment.<\/p>\n<p>Setting up a Titan furnace is extremely simple and can be completed in a single work day. It comes pre-mounted on a wheeled platform and can be rolled into position with a forklift. In manufacturing, Titan can be easily set up in the best position for any given production phase. <\/p>\n<p>Peter Lankes, head  of Ipsen International GmbH explains, &#8220;Anyone who can run a household washing machine shouldn&#8217;t have any problems setting up and operating our Titan furnaces. We consider this the biggest advance since the invention of the vacuum furnace itself.&#8221; Technical tidbit: heating steel components in an airless vacuum prevents their oxidizing or tarnishing during the heat treatment process.<\/p>\n<p>The Titan&#8217;s terminal has a 17&#8243; screen, a highly intuitive user interface, can be used in 21 languages and all standard systems of measurement. It comes preprogrammed with more than 1,000 standard industrial hardening processes, which can be directly monitored and documented.<\/p>\n<p> The Titan&#8217;s octagonal heating chamber offers ample space (450 x 450 x 610 mm) and a maximum of flexibility for a variety of loading configurations. Ipsen&#8217;s clients also remain flexible in their costs: the Titan is available directly from Ipsen both for purchase at an affordable price and for lease. <\/p>\n<p>Compact, affordable and flexible: the new Ipsen Titan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kleve, April &#8211; Some heat treatment furnaces are as big as a townhouse.
