Westland Helicopters have ordered two electrically heated, forced air recirculation, batch ovens. Both are conventional front loaders. Hedinair have a proven track record on this site of supplying ovens which meet their demanding performance and quality and were please to continue this working relationship in supplying these ovens.

Metal Closures Ltd in Huddersfield manufacture metal lids and screw caps for jars and bottle tops and used a very old conveyor oven to cure a PVC plastisol compound which is injected into the lids. They needed to replace this inefficient oven with a modern version which would not only be more efficient but improve the company carbon footprint. Hedinair had the correct solution, having already supplied two conveyor ovens to a similar company and proposed our Minicon electrically heated, forced air circulation oven.

03-01-2010Port of Salalah in Oman have ordered a batch oven for varnish baking and drying of large, heavy DC motors.
The varnish baking process generates heavy flammable vapours which need to be safely handled and meet current Health and Safety Executive regulations.
Also the oven will be complete with a low profile bogey which will run on railway track inside and outside the oven.
In this instance the client elected to install the outside track on site themselves but Hedinair also offer this facility both in the UK and abroad.
The oven price included export packing, delivery and exporting documentation. -
03-01-2010PPG Packaging Coatings in Germany have ordered another electrically heated, forced air recirculation, mesh belt, conveyor oven to stove painted metal test panels.
The oven will be used in their research and development department to prove new coatings and techniques on thin gauge metals.
The oven uses a proven high velocity, downwards airflow which imparts the heat quickly into the metal and therefore cures the coatings. These quick cure times need to represent the fast, continuous coil coating lines in the production factory.
The oven heated length is 2000mm and is controlled over two zones, with the air speed being adjustable using inverters on the fans.
Hedinair have established this format of oven over years of supplying these ovens to this industry. -
29-04-2009Gardner Aerospace in Basildon have ordered a heat treatment oven to conform to the NADCAP aerospace specification for pyrometry, known as AMS 2750D.
The batch oven has internal dimensions of 1150mm cubed and will be used for Solutionising of materials at 505ºC and precipitation treating at 180ºC. Both oven temperatures have to be within a temperature uniformity of ±6ºC.
Gardner Aerospace have returned to Hedinair for their second oven within two years, following the first oven successfully working at their site in Poland. -
29-04-2009Meggitt Polymer Solutions has combined the polymeric experience of two specialist companies, Dunlop Bestobell and Meggitt Silicone Products at their Loughborough site to manufacture seals for the aerospace industry.
This has brought about an expansion programme on their site which in turn has resulted in them purchasing eight ovens from Hedinair Ovens, spread over the past nine months. These ovens cure the silicone rubber in a uniform temperature using forced air circulation and controlled fresh air and extracted air to remove the heavy fumes generated. The ovens involve six medium to large batch ovens and two conveyor ovens. Meggitt and Hedinair have had a good working relationship over the years which has led to us being their preferred oven supplier. -
29-04-2009Professional Welding Services Ltd in Dorset have ordered a heat treatment oven to conform to the NADCAP aerospace specification for pyrometry, known as AMS 2750D.
The batch oven has internal working dimensions of 1525mm cubed and will be used for precipitation of materials between 140ºC and 190ºC at ±3ºC and solutionising of materials between 350ºC and 550ºC ±3ºC.
P. W. S. work with a wide range of aerospace companies involved in defence and commercial industries and required a superior oven to their existing model to meet these tighter specifications. -
29-04-2009Aero Fabrications in Nottingham have ordered a heat treatment oven to conform to the NADCAP aerospace specification for pyrometry, known as AMS 2750D.
The batch oven has internal dimensions of 1000mm cubed and will be used for Solutionising of materials at 175ºC, 375ºC and 505ºC ±3ºC.
The oven also has a vertical lifting door to facilitate fast withdrawal of the charge into a quench tank, following the heating cycle.
Aero Fabrications approached Hedinair with their oven requirement following an excellent recommendation by an independent company who temperature survey and calibrate industrial ovens needing to meet AMS 2750D.
