Furnace Automation & Modernization

Modern Control Systems for Heat Treatment Furnaces

With many years of experience in heat treatment automation, FAM provides modernization and control system upgrades for gas-atmosphere heat treatment furnaces.

Our engineering team has successfully completed numerous automation and panel revision projects for chamber furnaces, pit furnaces and continuous heat treatment lines, as well as vacuum heat treatment and nitriding furnaces.
These modernization projects help manufacturers extend the lifetime of existing equipment while significantly improving reliability, process control and operational safety.

Control Panel Retrofit & PLC Upgrades

Depending on the condition of the existing installation, different modernization strategies can be implemented.

In some cases, the existing control cabinet can be upgraded by replacing outdated PLC hardware and updating the control software to modern automation platforms.

In other cases, a complete control panel replacement is performed to introduce modern industrial components, improved wiring standards and advanced automation capabilities.
These upgrades significantly improve system reliability, reduce maintenance requirements and ensure long-term availability of spare parts and technical support.
