Exceptional Performance
Energy Efficiency
Ipsen’s Recon Burners increase
thermal efficiency up to 75%
– simply by recovering the
heat from the exhaust gases
to preheat the combustion air.
These single-ended radiant tubes
(SERT) are fitted with special
ceramic inner tubes and are set
apart by their low noise levels,
high durability, low maintenance
and easy installation –
allowing them to provide ideal
heating while optimizing gas
consumption.
Ipsen’s SuperQuench
reduces distortion, improves
the properties of steel
and consistently achieves
uniform hardening. This
system tackles even the
most challenging alloys
by reducing the hardness
spread and increasing
the overall throughput. Its
flexibility also allows for
adjustment of the oil flow
based on section size,
material and load density.
Carb-o-Prof – Intuitive Controls
System Integration
Ipsen’s components are configured
for maximum compatibility. The
ATLAS single-chain furnace model
utilizes the same push-pull chain
loader as the industry standard,
allowing it to integrate into existing
lines with ease.
Quality Insulation
Consistent Uniformity
ATLAS uses insulating fiber
and rigid firebricks that
are extremely resilient and
capable of withstanding
temperatures well above the
working temperature.
Ipsen’s ATLAS uses an
optional ceramic muffle made
of silicon-carbide for increased
temperature uniformity
throughout the load. The muffle
assists in evenly soaking
the load through its optimal
circulation and constant
directional flow.

Carb-o-Prof ® control software combines more than
six decades of knowledge and expertise in a single
control system. This reliable software allows you to
monitor and control uniformity of the atmosphere’s
C-level, maintaining a close tolerance for the
workpiece surface carbon content. Carb-o-Prof
also delivers an extensive recipe database, timeand cost-saving simulation functions with C-Profile
optimization and adaptive control that ensures you
get the best part quality every time.
Simulation Software
Users are able to compute the expected carbon
profile of their materials, as well as immediately
review the process results for their specific
load – all without wasting valuable parts, time or
resources.
C-Profile Optimization
Using pre-specified target parameters, users can define a target carbon-content curve. This ensures
parts within the same load are consistent in both case depth and hardness.
Adaptive Control
If some unforeseen event occurs, this intuitive control software adapts the process to the changing
circumstances, preventing the waste of parts and resources.
Recipe Database
This system’s database allows users to easily create and store hundreds of recipes, all based on a wide
variety of materials. It also avoids errors by limiting the input ranges, maintaining a safe operation.
