Modular and flexible installations for vacuum heat treatment : the ICBP® Range is extending

Bertoni Pierre - ECM Technologies (France)

Since 1991, the ICBP® installations have been in use worldwide in the heat treatment area for several applications such as, for example, Low Pressure Carburizing, Carbonitriding, Brazing, or Sintering. ECM Technologies’ long experience in vacuum carburizing is one of the key of the leading position held today by ECM Technologies. The most well-known installation is the ICBP® Flex type, a modular installation fitted with a closed transfer chamber, heating and quenching cells. It offers a wide flexibility, high productivity and enables investment optimization with a very easy extension of the installation. Some emerging trends can be observed in the heat treatment field according to customers’ needs depending on production volumes or quality issues. Based on its long experience, ECM Technologies has designed innovative and modular solutions to answer these trends. For example, the ICBP®Nano installation has been designed for small batch processing with a high focus on quality, and the ICBP®Jumbo to fulfill very high capacity production. In both cases, high uptime, reliability and easy maintenance were key points carefully looked at during the development. The purpose of this presentation is to go through the applications and the solutions brought by the ICBP® technology.
