UniCase Master – Single‑Piece Flow Case Hardening System
A single‑piece flow case‑hardening system using Low Pressure Carburizing (LPC) and 4D High‑Pressure Gas Quenching (HPGQ) for ultra‑low distortion heat
VECTOR HPGQ – High-Pressure Gas Quenching Vacuum Furnace
VECTOR HPGQ is a high-vacuum, single-chamber furnace engineered for precision heat-treatment applications requiring controlled, uniform and distortion-reduced quenching. The system integrates a high-pressure gas-quench module (typically 10–25 bar) using nitrogen, argon or helium, enabling fast and uniform cooling for aerospace steels, tool steels and other high-alloy components. The furnace offers a graphite or all-metal hot zone, multi-zone temperature control, convection heating enhancement and options for low-pressure carburizing and nitriding. It is designed for full compliance with demanding industrial and aerospace heat-treatment specifications and provides clean, oxidation-free vacuum processing with high repeatability from batch to batch.
