What makes up an Upton automated salt bath system?
Upton configures automated salt bath systems with PLC controls and material handling for multiple processes. PLC control systems coordinate furnace controls and material handling with automatic, semi-automatic and manual programs. Bridgecrane, sidearm and service hoists handle load transfer and system maintenance, PLC-controlled swing arms transfer loads between furnace and quench stations, and a multi-position load and unload carousel gives operators time to unload finished parts and reload the system. Tell us which processes the line needs to run, your part sizes and load weights, and your target throughput.
