In addition to the use of low-CO2<\/sub> or CO2<\/sub>-free drive systems, the fundamental reduction of energy consumption (fuel, electricity) is also targeted in this context.<\/p>\n To achieve this, materials with significantly lower specific weights than steel are being developed and used, such as carbon composites<\/a> (CFRP) or high-alloy aluminum<\/a>. Such material substitutions are complemented and supported by a bionic design of structural components, which allows, for example, a car body to be designed with significantly less material than before.<\/p>\n The advanced aluminum alloys used to manufacture such components are heated in an industrial furnace to the required, close-tolerance processing temperature (preheating<\/a>), irrespective of the shaping process (forming or casting), and then formed with stable properties and low stress, or cooled in a downstream process, for example in a circulating air chamber, in a targeted manner (quenching<\/a>).<\/p>\n To ensure the quality of the process, the CQI-9 standard is usually applied.<\/p>\n ^<\/a><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_toggle][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.14.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.schwing-thermal-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/automotive.jpg” title_text=”automotive” _builder_version=”4.14.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_toggle title=”Automotive Suppliers” use_icon_font_size=”on” icon_font_size=”22px” open_use_icon_font_size=”on” open_icon_font_size=”22px” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” title_level=”h2″ hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n As a process-diversified industry, the automotive supply industry requires a large number of different industrial furnaces and heat treatment plants for drying<\/a> paints and adhesive bonds, for tempering<\/a> and hardening<\/a> plastics and composites, and finally for the manifold heat treatment of metals and aluminum alloys, such as for artificial aging<\/a> of metal or solution annealing<\/a> of aluminum components.<\/p>\n In the planning and design of heat treatment plants, the requirements of DIN EN 1539<\/a> for a safe process flow and for the safe discharge of explosive or flammable substances as well as the industry-specific standard CQI-9 often apply.<\/p>\n ^<\/a><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_toggle][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”3.25″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” custom_padding=”45px|||” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.schwing-thermal-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/aviation_fotolia_62869265.jpg” title_text=”aviation_fotolia_62869265″ _builder_version=”4.14.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_toggle title=”Aerospace Technology” use_icon_font_size=”on” icon_font_size=”22px” open_use_icon_font_size=”on” open_icon_font_size=”22px” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” title_level=”h2″ hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Special safety requirements are found in all processes and systems in the aerospace industry, including the manufacturing processes and systems for materials, parts and components in aircraft construction.<\/p>\n Particularly in the case of material property-forming heat treatment processes, special emphasis is placed on temperature uniformity, system accuracy and on the reproducibility of the documented thermal processes.

Here, for example, industrial furnaces and heat treatment plants are used for heating (shrinking<\/a>), solution annealing (hardening<\/a>), stress-relieving annealing<\/a> (stress-relieving) and tempering (blue coloring<\/a>).<\/p>\n To achieve the specific material properties, the specially designed SCHWING industrial furnaces realize an exact thermoprocess in a relatively narrow temperature window and with excellent reproducibility.<\/p>\n ^<\/a><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_toggle][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”3.25″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” custom_padding=”45px|||” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.schwing-thermal-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/break-pads-plastics-industry.jpg” title_text=”break-pads-plastics-industry” _builder_version=”4.14.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_toggle title=”Composite Materials” use_icon_font_size=”on” icon_font_size=”22px” open_use_icon_font_size=”on” open_icon_font_size=”22px” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” title_level=”h2″ hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Structural components made of composite materials such as glass fiber reinforced plastics (GRP, GMT\/glass fiber mats) or carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) are increasingly replacing previously used parts and components made of metal (steel) in order to successfully combine the positive material properties of different materials and, above all, to take advantage of the associated, sometimes significant weight reduction. The end product thus offers higher energy efficiency combined with improved mechanical properties (strength, toughness, dimensional stability).<\/p>\n For example, CFRP materials are used for tanks of hydrogen-powered vehicles and corresponding property-determining fiber materials are used for complex safety products such as brake and clutch linings.<\/p>\n In the manufacture of products made of composites, industrial furnaces<\/a> are mainly used for drying<\/a> and hardening<\/a> ( dimensional stabilization, solidification). In accordance with DIN EN 1539<\/a>, these furnaces ensure the safe handling of flammable substances that are outgassed during the heat treatment process.<\/p>\n ^<\/a><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_toggle][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.schwing-thermal-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/rim-drying-after-powder-coating.jpg” title_text=”rim-drying-after-powder-coating” _builder_version=”4.14.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_toggle title=”Lacquers, Coatings” use_icon_font_size=”on” icon_font_size=”22px” open_use_icon_font_size=”on” open_icon_font_size=”22px” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” title_level=”h2″ hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Painted and otherwise coated components are used in numerous industries, and their surface coatings have to be baked<\/a>, hardened<\/a> or dried.<\/p>\n The surface finishes used essentially for corrosion protection and\/or for optical reasons are usually applied to the components in a wet, powder coating or whirl sintering process.

The dryers or industrial furnaces<\/a> used here are designed for the specific application process. For example, in wet paint coating, the component coating is cured by drying<\/a>, while in fluidized bed coating, preheating<\/a> is used.<\/p>\n
