Solar Atmospheres of Western PA Begins Titanium Drop Bottom Furnace Installation
The foundation is now in place at Solar Atmospheres of Western PA for the installation of a state-of-the-art titanium drop bottom water quench furnace. Engineered for precision and performance, this new furnace is rated for a maximum operating temperature of 1850°F ±10°F and is designed to process titanium bar and forging loads of up to 7,500 pounds.
Measuring 14 feet long by 54 inches wide by 48 inches high, workloads will be rapidly transferred into a 7,000-gallon, recirculated water quench tank within seconds—ensuring consistent metallurgical results for demanding aerospace and industrial applications.
This investment marks a significant step forward, opening the door to expanded titanium solution treating capabilities and reinforcing Solar Atmospheres’ commitment to innovation and customer-driven thermal processing solutions.
