The RCR Heat Treatment High Velocity Gas Burner (HVG) equipment consists of high output, fully adjustable units ranging between 100,000 and 8,000,000 Btu per hour. The turndown ratio is extremely high at approximately 100:1, a feature which gives complete and accurate temperature control at all stages of the process.
RCR Heat Treatment has a wide range of electrical resistance heating equipment. This option is suited to all on-site heat treatment requirements including refractory dry out requirements.
RCR Heat Treatment has the latest technology in wireless remote monitoring and control equipment. Our systems offer electronic data capture and storage, particularly suited to large projects and shut down work.
Induction is a non-contact electrical process allowing rapid heating of the surface of steels. This can be used for surface hardening or simply as an efficient heating method for preheats and fitting of components.
Normalising is a process that is used to improve the grain structure and make a metal more ductile after it has been exposed to thermal or mechanical hardening processes.
The purpose of preheating prior and during the welding process is to assist with hydrogen diffusion from the weld and heat-affected zone (HAZ). It also slows down the cooling rate from the welding, this is necessary to avoid cracking.
RCR Heat treatment is experienced in the dry out process in refractory. We utilise both electric and gas options depending on the size of the work piece. This can be accomplished both in-house and on-site.
Post Weld Heat Treatment (PWHT) is the heating process carried out after welding is complete. In some cases, an intermediate bake-out / de-gas will be performed if not going directly into the stress relieving phase.
