Rediseño e implementación del horno de tratamientos térmicos SYBRON Thermolyne F-A1630 de la empresa Ala de Transportes Nro. 11 Latacunga-Ecuador

Abstract

The present technologic device project titled "Redesign and Implementation of the Sybron Thermolyne F-A1630 Heat Treatment Furnace at Ala de Transportes Nro. 11 Company, Latacunga-Ecuador" focuses on optimizing an industrial furnace used in heat treatment processes, crucial for the aeronautical industry. The Sybron Thermolyne F-A1630 furnace, currently inoperative, is essential for conducting heat treatments on aeronautical parts that require precision and high quality. The project addresses a detailed diagnosis of the current state of the furnace, followed by the redesign of its mechatronic components, including heating elements, ventilation systems, thermal insulation, control systems, and safety elements. Deficiencies in the electrical supply were identified, as the furnace's resistances require a voltage of 240V, while the current network only provides 200V, affecting the furnace's efficiency and response time. The implementation of the technological device is justified in order to ensure compliance with quality and safety standards in the aeronautical industry, and reduces costs associated with outsourcing external services. The redesign and implementation of the furnace are expected to not only optimize aeronautical maintenance processes but also improve the operational autonomy and economic efficiency of Ala de Transportes Nro. 11 company.
