Aluminum Furnaces: Basketless Heat Treating System (BHTS®)

The marketplace has put increasing demands on manufacturers to reduce costs and increase product quality. Can-Eng Furnaces’ New Basketless Heat Treating System has been engineered to meet these on-going and ever increasing production challenges.
Can-Eng’s BHTS® eliminates the need for product conveying baskets, carriers, trays or fixtures which require continuous repairs and replacement, reducing capital costs and greatly reducing energy consumption requirements. Options also exist for unique conveyor or rotary system layouts which can be integrated into lean manufacturing cells.
