Equipment

SECO/WARWICK roller hearth furnaces heat quickly and uniformly.  No matter what the length of run or size of tubing, SECO/WARWICK furnaces provide even heating - end to end - as the work progresses through the furnace.

SECO/WARWICK furnaces are capable of processing a wide variety of tube diameters up to 10 inches/254 mm and lengths in excess of 100 feet/30 meters.  Wall thickness may vary from several thousands of an inch up to an inch/25mm.  SECO/WARWICK will custom design each roller hearth furnace line to suit plant layout, process configuration and desired production rates.

Controls

SECO/WARWICK offers total control systems featuring PC/PLC integration along with graphic software packages and over temperature control instrumentation.  The computer relates a wide range of variables and provides a constant feedback for instant recall and downloading of data to a centralized computer system.   Temperature, tube wall gauge, conveyor speed, loading and atmosphere conditions are but a few of the parameters that can be monitored, controlled, recorded, stored, and varied by the operator with the push of a button.

System Control Panel

The control system uses a PLC and is on the leading edge of controls regardless of the particular process.  A single PLC  located adjacent to the furnace, allows the operator to have fingertip control of all of the inputs and furnace operations.

  The graphic interface, programmed by SECO/WARWICK, is custom tailored to exclusive requirements as specified by the end user.  All the conveniences of a digital display panel are combined into a single computer terminal screen with recording and retrieval capabilities available on demand.

  If utilized to the full capacity of the system, the input of a customer order code number is all that is needed to implement a specified pre-programmed cycle for heat treating the entire lot of tubing.
