Whirl-A-Way Quench™

The Whirl-A-Way quench is designed to provide uniform quench results with ferrous and nonferrous metal parts after they have reached temperature in the furnace. 

Typical applications: Coins, nuts, studs, nails, screws, bolts and washers. 

The Whirl-A-Way quench uses oil, synthetic or water media, and is designed to prevent atmosphere contamination in the furnace. 

This unique design utilizes a pressurized chamber to generate quench fluid velocity to convey parts without a belt which prevents lost parts, clumps and clogs. 

The vapor barrier commonly present during quench  is wiped from each part individually by the media flow.  This action produces superior uniformity and hardness results on otherwise difficult, if not impossible, applications.

Parts are discharged into the quench chute and the quench medium seconds after temperature has been achieved, and are conveyed to the rotating quench drum by the velocity of the quench fluid.   On entry into the rotary quench drum, parts are conveyed to the discharge end by the revolving motion of the drum flight conveyor. 

The Whirl-A-Way Quench is recommend for small parts due to its outstanding ability to handle a wide variety of sizes and shapes. 

The unit requires no pit or belt conveyor when used with a SECO/WARWICK system, and is ideal for adaptation to any rotary retort, shuffle hearth, conveyor belt or shaker hearth type furnace.

When you need speed:  actual quenching is completed within two to five seconds from the time parts drop into the quenchant.  Parts are completely processed in about ten minutes.

When you need dependability:  the fluid flow system assures individual quenching of each part.  Design helps to eliminate clumps and clogs to assure proper quench technique.

When you need ruggedness:  the tough construction of the Whirl-A-Way will stand up under your most demanding production conditions if you use oil, water or synthetics.
