“GUARAMIRIM, SANTA CATARINA, BRAZIL – December 5, 2024 – Tecnotêmpera Tratamentos Térmicos Ltda., a leader in heat treatment services in Brazil, proudly announced the inauguration of its newly expanded vacuum department. This upgrade includes significant logistics improvements through extensive civil engineering efforts and retrofitting.

Central to the expansion is the acquisition of five cutting-edge Fulcrum furnaces.

It stands out in the heat treatment of exceptionally large tools and molds, having already successfully completed various projects. Additionally, it offers economical benefits in the treatment of mixed loads with high total payloads.

Event Highlights: The inauguration event was marked by a ceremony honoring Amandos Siewert, a founding member and senior metallurgical engineer at Tecnotêmpera, for his 23 years of dedication to the company and 56 years in the heat treatment industry.
