Meeting the Demand for Speed and Consistency in Shaft Hardening
Manufacturers of critical rotating components like transmission shafts, drive shafts, and heavy-duty pins face constant pressure to increase output while maintaining stringent quality standards. Traditional quenching methods, often single-station or manual processes, struggle to keep pace.
Production lines are hampered by slow cycle times, inconsistent hardening depths (typically 2-10mm required), and the challenge of managing high power demands efficiently. These limitations directly impact delivery schedules, cost-per-part, and overall competitiveness.
The FOCO Solution: Dual-Station Powerhouse
The FOCO Induction 300KW Dual-Station Shaft Quenching System directly addresses these industry challenges:
- Double the Output: The core innovation lies in its dual-station design. While one shaft is undergoing quenching, the other station can be loaded or unloaded.
- Deep, Consistent Hardening with Precision Control: Powered by a robust 300KW induction heating machine operating at a versatile 5-45 KHz frequency. The adjustable frequency allows optimal heat penetration for different shaft diameters and the specified hardening depths of 2-10mm.
- Enhanced Process Flexibility: The system supports multi-stage scan heating, enabling complex hardening patterns or optimized heating profiles for specific shaft geometries.
- Robust Cooling for Continuous Operation: The system incorporates a dedicated cooling system featuring a chiller unit for workpiece quenching and an open water cooling tower specifically designed to handle the significant heat load generated by the 300KW power supply, ensuring reliable, continuous operation.
