CPA starts up a new Wire production line with AEOX – Heating treatment in China


In Xiamen (South China) this week the taiwanese Fu Chuan Steel Works Company (an automotive supplier, which belongs to the Taiwan Fu Tai Group) started up the newest AEOX - wire patenting plant of the Styrian plant manufacturer CPA Building & Factory Technologies GmbH. The unique advantages of the AEOX - method (developed by CPA) are the up to 40% lower energy consumption than other comparable systems, the high part-load capacity, and above all the use of a food safe water/polymer mixture instead of a lead bath for the quenching after austenitization at 950-1000 ° C. Because China's authority does not approve lead baths (because of health and environmental reasons), these technology was a prerequisite for the placement of the order. CPA uses the so-called "film boiling" method (based on the Leidenfrost - effect), coupled with a subsequent, controlled temperature - holding zone, which simulates a lead bath, but without harmful emissions or water contamination. Today plants with water instead of lead are used by the leading steel wire producers in the world for heat treatment of wires from 0.7mm diameter up to largest dimensions. Apart from the advantages in terms of environmental protection and quality by avoiding lead dragout by the wires, the method also offers considerable cost advantages due to the elimination of the expensive lead. The new plant in Xiamen produces 20,000 tons of wire per year and was delivered and put into operation by CPA as a turnkey project, including pre- and post-treatment, Winders and Process Control System with Manufacturing Execution System (MES). The customer is very enthusiastic about the system, so that he has already commissioned the next exact same plant for a factory in Taiwan and placed another order for the plant in China.
