Maximum quenching quality under vacuum
The Vacuum Oil Quenching furnace series (VOQ) from Aichelin has been specifically developed for heat treatment processes where conventional gas quenching is insufficient. Thanks to the double-chamber design, the entire process – from heating to quenching – takes place under vacuum. The result: consistent hardness values, minimal distortion, and high reproducibility.
