Vacuum Furnace Builder Expanding Facility to Keep Up With Orders
(Editors Note; Consarc offers very specialized vacuum furnaces and their offerings would typically not be seen in a commercial heat treat as an example).
“Consarc Corporation, an Inductotherm Group company specializing in custom vacuum and controlled-atmosphere furnaces, has broken ground on a major expansion of its Rancocas, New Jersey, USA, manufacturing facility.
The approximately 3,400 m2 expansion will nearly double the company’s overall manufacturing footprint and includes additional space for heavy fabrication, equipment assembly, testing, and additional offices to support new staff.
Construction of the expanded facility is scheduled for completion in early 2027. Once finished, Consarc anticipates that the increased space will allow the company to immediately scale manufacturing operations in response to what it has referred to as an ‘unprecedented backlog’ of work.
Consarc customers primarily produce advanced materials for the Additive Manufacturing, aerospace, power generation, medical, and nuclear industries, sectors that are projecting historically high demand through the remainder of the decade. In addition, the company’s latest technologies support rare-earth magnet production and the reduction of critical rare-earth elements.
“This expansion reflects the strong momentum of our business, driven by growing demand in the US and across our global customer base,” stated Jai Narayan, Consarc President. “By enhancing our manufacturing capabilities, we are positioning Consarc to build more efficiently, innovate faster, and support the next phase of long-term growth. It’s an exciting milestone for our entire organization.”
