Heat treatment processes require fixtures that can withstand demanding temperatures while providing stable and reliable support for components. CFC heat treatment fixtures are becoming increasingly used in high-temperature applications because carbon fibre reinforced carbon can offer a useful combination of low weight, high-temperature capability, and dimensional stability. These fixtures can help manufacturers organise components inside furnaces and support consistent processing across repeated heat treatment cycles. How Can CFC Heat Treatment Fixtures Improve Furnace Processing? 1. […]
