Since the early 1990s, this manufacturer has relied on Nitrex’s VVF series vacuum furnaces to produce aircraft engine parts, benefitting from their durability, precision, and reliability across a range of aerospace applications. The latest furnace order includes a spacious 60” x 60” (1,524 mm x 1,524 mm) chamber with bottom loading, capable of handling loads up to 3,000 lbs. (1,360 kg), and is specifically designed for the heat treatment of high-performance engine components. Built to support rigorous production schedules, the VVF series furnace will help maintain the highest standards of performance and efficiency.
Says Mark Hemsath, Nitrex NTS Division President, “The customer’s decision to expand with Nitrex reflects G-M Enterprises’ proven track record in furnace reliability. Our commitment to quality has anchored this partnership for over three decades.”
“Our long-standing relationship with this aerospace customer underscores Nitrex’s commitment to providing durable equipment backed by robust technical support,” said Jay Jefsen, Regional Sales Manager for Nitrex Vacuum. “We are proud to contribute to their ongoing success and look forward to supporting their production goals with this latest addition.”
The furnace is scheduled for commissioning in April 2025.
