HEAT TREATMENT OF METAL PARTS IN THE FLUIDIZED BED
SCHWING possesses more than 50 years of experience in the engineering and manufacturing of high-temperature systems based on fluidized bed technology.

With this especially energy-efficient, safe as well as time, personnel and space-saving heat treatment process the metal component is immersed in a retort, which is filled with fluidized aluminum oxide powder through which gas flows. The benefits of this process are its superb heat transfer capabilities and temperature accuracy, the quick to execute atmosphere exchanges and, especially, the extremely short process times. The systems are also available as a quenching bath for gentle and defined quenching.

SCHWING offers compact, safe and energy-efficient fluidized bed systems for innovative and multifunctional heat treatment processes with temperatures from 200 to 1050 °C. The safety and environmental protection of the systems and the quality of the products treated are key features of this technology.
