Pointe Precision's Announces Addition of New Heat Treat Furnaces


Pointe Precision is excited to announce the addition of two new heat treat furnaces, an Ipsen Titan H4 2 Bar Quench vacuum furnace and Blue M CW-9980 Air Furnace (not pictured).


Since the new Titan vacuum furnace came online, we have more than doubled the capacity of our vacuum heat treatment capabilities.  Being Nadcap certified, the automated furnace will run up to 3000 lbs of material and guarantee uniform hardness based on its +/- 10 degree F certification at all points inside the 18 cu. Ft. work envelope with a qualified temperature range of 1000-2000 degree F.



With the addition of the new Blue M draw furnace, we have quadrupled the volume of available space to run parts for tempers and hardening below 1000 degree F.  It’s programmable controller has allowed us to achieve Nadcap accreditation and ensure the correct processing by removing the human element from the process.  With a qualified work zone of nearly 8 cubic feet, we can guarantee consistent soaking at temperatures from 300-1000 with a tolerance of +/- 10 degree F.
