EPSI’s Upgraded Furnace Provides Easier Maintenance and Longer Life Cycle
EPSI (Engineered Pressure Systems, Inc.), a world leader in custom-engineered high-pressure solutions, increases the reliability and productivity of older Hot Isostatic Press (HIP) systems with a furnace upgrade. By replacing the furnace heat shield assembly in outdated HIPs, EPSI can help companies extend the life of their existing production units. With a modern, plug-in design and new power feed through, EPSI’s furnace offers better temperature control, reduces downtime, and improves energy efficiency. EPSI can modernize HIP units used in diverse industries, including castings, ceramics, plastics, automotive, and aerospace.
EPSI’s furnace upgrade is a cost-effective alternative to an entire HIP system replacement or rebuild. A new EPSI furnace can have a 10 times longer life than a rebuilt one, and EPSI gives an extended warranty on cycles with its upgrade. Its plug-in design is easy to maintain, eliminates loading problems and reduces the risk of damage to the equipment. EPSI furnaces can be fitted for enhanced cooling to suite specific application needs in most instances. Additionally, EPSI can retrofit its furnace heat shield assembly into any existing HIP vessel, including those manufactured by other HIP manufacturers.
