“Hirschvogel Group” of Germany is known as one of the  world’s largest manufacturers of forged and machined steel and aluminum components, primarily for the automotive industry-as such they have a great deal of in house heat treating capacity.

The company recently accepted a double-flow chamber furnace (heating capacity: 365 kW), a preheating furnace, an endogas generator (endomat) & comprehensive peripheral equipment. All of the equipment is being provided by “Aichelin Group” of Austria and was built in their “Bosio” facility in Slovenia.

The attached photos show the “Hirschvogel” team accepting the completed furnace line.

Earlier this year Mr. Gord Montgomery of “The Monty Heat Treat News” visited the “Bosio” facility in Slovenia and the result was this summary “Furnace Builder Shows Off Newest Facility” . Interestingly enough if you look closely at the photos in our original article you can see this furnace during final assembly along with members of the “AIchelin” team including the CEO of the company Mr. Christian Grosspointer.
