Warren, Michigan manufacturer Weldaloy a manufacturer of seamless rolled rings recently added a new oven to increase their aluminum heat treating capacity. The installation of one low temperature oven certainly doesn’t get us all excited but it did prompt us to comment on the fact that aluminum heat treating is a growing market with manufacturers of everything from cars to planes to ATV’s to Jet Skis and snowmobiles all anxious to see better fuel economy which of course means lighter weight which leads to lighter materials which means materials such as aluminum. All of this to our mind means that alongside growing heat treating technologies such as nitriding we confidently predict that aluminum heat treating will also be seeing strong growth in the near future. Bet on it.
"On the heels of a recent expansion of their seamless rolled ring capabilities, Weldaloy continues to grow with the addition of a new low temperature aluminum aging oven. The new oven will increase Weldaloy’s aluminum heat-treating capacity. Ovens created specifically for aluminum can reduce cycle times and increase productivity by optimizing temperature uniformity through adequate airflow. This translates to a better product that can be made in a repeatable recipe. “We’re receiving more and more requests for large aluminum work, so we needed to add this low temperature aluminum aging oven to be able to increase our capacity and meet production needs. This addition will allow us to produce more parts in the same amount of time for our customers while maintaining quality,” said Kurt Ruppenthal, Vice President & General Manager at Weldaloy. Many of the new opportunities for aluminum work have come from the oil and gas industry and the aerospace industry, as well as from the private space sector. Weldaloy recently achieved the AS9100C certification for their Quality Management System, which has opened the door for them to work with more aerospace companies that require certification of their suppliers".
