SECO/COMPONENTS – components for heat treatment furnaces.
Manufacturing specialized subassemblies for metal heat treatment furnaces.
SECO/COMPONENTS is a new business segment created to support SECO/WARWICK companies, their customers, and other industries in Poland and worldwide. This area focuses on manufacturing temperature sensors and specialized thermometry components—an essential part of modern industrial processes.
SECO/COMPONENTS is built around thermoelectric sensors and mineral-insulated extension leads. These products are designed for applications where durability, stable performance, resistance to operating conditions, and the ability to meet specific use cases are essential.
The scope also includes specialized thermometry parts used in SECO/WARWICK products. This helps develop in-house expertise in components that significantly affect temperature measurement quality, equipment reliability, and efficient support for production and service processes.
SECO/COMPONENTS
SECO/COMPONENTS is being developed with a practical, market-driven approach. The goal is to deliver solutions that not only support SECO/WARWICK products but also increase agility, strengthen in-house capabilities, and enable more effective responses to customer requirements. This area operates under an ISO 9001–compliant quality management system, underscoring a structured approach to processes, quality, and continuous improvement.
Developing this segment also deepens our know-how in sensor design, along with the expertise for component selection that enhances performance in demanding conditions.
For SECO/WARWICK, this is fundamental—it strengthens practical, material and application expertise for heat treatment and foundry solutions. It also creates space to build stronger two-way customer relationships, not only on product delivery but also on sharing experiences and newly gained knowledge. This direction is rooted in quality, functionality, and the development of modern technical capabilities that will support both the Group’s internal growth and the needs of external customers who expect proven solutions.
As a company that also uses these components in our own solutions, we have practical insight into the quality, durability, and functionality requirements they must meet. That lets us develop our offering based on real process needs—not just design assumptions.
For our customers, this means:
- The option to implement recurring component replacements under agreed terms of cooperation
- Components engineered for high reliability
- High quality supported by an ISO 9001–compliant management system
- Careful selection and verification of sub-suppliers to maintain consistent quality standards

How do you choose a temperature sensor (thermocouple) for a heat treatment furnace?
Selecting a thermocouple for a furnace should be based on real operating conditions and the requirements of the process. In practice, key factors include the temperature range, furnace atmosphere, mounting method, expected service life, and long-term signal stability.
SECO/COMPONENTS manufactures temperature sensors—including thermocouples and mineral-insulated extension leads—designed for heat treatment applications. This makes it possible to match the right solution to a specific use case and equipment operating conditions.
How can you reduce the risk of incorrect temperature measurement in heat treatment?
You can reduce the risk of incorrect temperature measurement by selecting sensors suited to process conditions and using components with stable operating characteristics. In heat treatment, even small temperature deviations can affect quality, repeatability, and compliance.
That’s why the quality of thermometry elements – such as thermocouples, mineral-insulated extension leads, and other measurement components – matters. SECO/COMPONENTS provides solutions designed to improve temperature-measurement reliability and equipment uptime.
When should you replace a thermocouple or temperature sensor in an industrial furnace?
Consider replacement when you see signs of reduced measurement stability, an increasing risk of failure, or when operating conditions may accelerate wear of the sensing element. In industrial use, sensor parameters can drift over time, increasing the risk of process deviation. SECO/COMPONENTS supports a prevention-based approach by offering thermocouples, mineral-insulated extension leads, and the option to implement recurring component replacements under an agreed cooperation model.
Which temperature-sensor parameters matter most in heat treatment furnaces?
In heat treatment furnaces, durability, long-term stability, and resistance to operating conditions are especially important. Durability helps reduce downtime risk, stability supports repeatable temperature control, and resistance increases reliability in demanding industrial environments. SECO/COMPONENTS designs thermoelectric sensors—including thermocouples and mineral-insulated extension leads—with these key requirements in mind.
How can you avoid downtime caused by temperature sensor failures in industrial furnaces?
One effective way to reduce downtime is to use reliable components and plan sensor replacements before a failure occurs. In plants where production stoppages create real losses, preventive actions are often more effective than reacting only after a problem appears. SECO/COMPONENTS supplies thermocouples, mineral-insulated extension leads, and thermometry components—and supports customers in implementing recurring component replacements. Operating under an ISO 9001–compliant quality management system helps ensure repeatability and consistent quality standards.
