What product and services does your company offer?
We design and manufacture customized advanced vacuum furnaces in a wide range of geometries and dimensions that are used in the heat treatment of steels, alloys, superalloys, advanced ceramic materials in hardening, tempering, solubilization, annealing, brazing, and sintering operations.
We support these processes mainly in the following fields: production of heat exchangers, aviation/aerospace, automotive, IGT (industrial gas turbine) industry, heat treatment of additive manufactured parts, commercial heat treatment, component sintering industry (medical, precision mechanics, optics,) and R&D laboratories.
We produce cart door horizontal vacuum furnaces for applications that require higher repeatability and reproducibility of the results. It is the cost-effective solution for large, dense loads, perfectly suitable to move massive loads up to 10,000-plus pounds with maximum safety.
The hinged-door horizontal vacuum furnace is the best solution to meet heat-treating needs in the various fields of vacuum application. Whatever speed, compactness, precision, and reliability are required, this vacuum furnace solution provides customers with the most suitable answer in terms of automation and operational flexibility. The constant deep-rooted dedication to innovation has driven TAV Vacuum Furnaces to work out solutions meeting all customer needs, becoming one of the few vacuum furnace suppliers to manufacture vertical furnaces for vacuum heat treatment, vacuum brazing, advanced ceramics, and UHV (Ultra High Vacuum) applications.
We also offer a highly qualified after-sales service that includes customer staff training, maintenance programs, remote troubleshooting with state-of-the-art computer analysis techniques, and consumables/spare parts supply. Since 2015, in order to enhance our relationship with the North America market, we established Furnacare Inc. in Spartanburg, South Carolina.
