CFC Heat Treatment Fixtures for Reliable High-Temperature Processing

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. […]

We just delivered some new CFC-Racks

At High Temperature Concept, our customers come first. This week, we delivered a new generation of CFC-Racks. Please take a peek. What are the main advantages of CFC-Racks for the LPC heat treatment process? 1. The CFC-Fixtures don’t warp or grow over time. The forms will remain stable, and they are a reliable place to hold parts like gears or pinions for the best results in the heat treatment process. 2. CFC-Fixtures are chemically inert. […]

The 10 Main Advantages of CFC-Fixtures

At High Temperature Concept, we’re always striving for most effective and efficient CFC-Fixtures and Racks for our customers. There are, above all, two main preconditions why we can suggest this. First, our founder, Jorg Demmel, is one of the Pioneers of CFC Fixtures and the only one with a PhD in this field. Furthermore, he and his team developed between 1995 and 2002 in Stuttgart a new generation of Fixtures: A new Technology by German engineers reshaping […]
