In Septemeber 2016, Production Centre ZRE Katowice S.A., sucessfully completed the manufacturing of the biggest pressure housing of furnace for heat treatment of aircraft parts (BOEING and AIRBUS). The customer was SECO/WARWICK Group company.
The furnace housing weighs approx. 80 tons and consists of 3 parts – the main chamber and the closing doors.
The scope of our work included all activities, from purchasing the material, by welding, mechanical working, the assembly of the housing, to testing and performing trials.
The housing will be the base of construction for one of the biggest vacuum furnace in Europe. The furnace will be used for heat treatment of some parts for airplanes e.g. undercarriages legs, which will be installed in Boeing’s and Airbus’ machines.
The furnace housing complies with all the strict aircraft industry standards. The pressure of cooling furnace is 14 bar and the setting of safety is 14.3 bar.
We are grateful to SECO / WARWICK Group Company for trust and the opportunity to implement the project of great importance for the European and global industry.
