In 2008 furnace spares and maintenance had an enquiry from milled carbon group, to
Develop an existing furnace for the use of recycling carbon fibre. This is a new principle
To achieve what many have tried before, as carbon fibre is a very versatile material. Once
Formed from new it can not be redeveloped and is useless to any other application and
has to be sent to land-
furnace and process. However this particular furnace although it had the basics to
prove that this process Worked. it was not possible to achieve any sort of reasonable
production. Having proven This milled carbon entrusted us to design a new Plant and after various meetings and proposals the initial furnace design was approved and manufacture commenced in autumn 2008...
The worlds first recycling carbon fibre furnace.
Together as a joint venture both the process and the plant have been patented worldwide.
‘RECARBOLINE’
Spring of 2009 installation and commissioning of
The plant began at recycled carbon fibre ltd
Premises. Part of the milled carbon group.

June 2008 we designed and built an automated fast quench charging machine for one of
our existing customers. This machine was installed and commissioned in february 2009 and Produces a fast quench programme. This involves the machine being at station in front of a high temperature batch furnace (also built by ourselves). Furnace door is raised and
forks extended, load lifted and forks retract. Once forks back in the home position the
machine then starts to Travel down their heat treatment facility while rotating 180
degrees. Reaching quench the machine Slows and stops at station, forks extend lowering
load onto quench table and then retract back to their home position. Ready for load to
be quenched.
Recently completed design and build for local hospital incinerator. Completed in october 2009, this hopper, door and pusher assembly was installed to replace the existing system. Giving them an easier and more maintainable way of loading the incinerator.
Our latest on going project is a bespoke design automated tilt and quench furnace, which incorporates its own charging/loading mechanism for the petrochemical industry.
