I grew up in Michigan and most people
that are from this area know that it is a State that is highly focused on
manufacturing. Most people who I knew as
a child were some how associated with the manufacturing industry or worked in a
plant or a factory. This gave me a great
appreciation for the manufacturing process. However, just as important as the
factories and plants that make the products that go directly to the consumer
are the companies that engineer the machinery that makes those products.
Perceptive Industries is one such company. They design, build, and install several types
of machinery that are used in the manufacturing process such as ovens, thermal
oxidizers, and heat recovery systems.
They also do rebuilding and retrofitting. Industrial ovens are a very
common type of equipment in a factory and Perceptive Industries specializes in
these ovens including hydrogen embrittlement relief ovens, a tempering oven,
and a stress relieving oven. Ovens such
as a tempering oven are used to heat metal so that it is able to flex and not
break. Metal can often be come brittle
and easy to fracture after it is processed.
These ovens can be quite complex as well. When a factory or a plant needs an oven,
there is a process of consulting, designing, building, and installing. It is also important with environmental
concerns and cost concerns that the ovens are very efficient. Perceptive
Industries designs ovens that can recovery energy, saving money and
reducing energy consumption. These
factors are very important with new regulations and increasing energy costs.
