A gas generator was recently installed for Jomarca, one of the biggest manufacturers of fasteners, bolts, nuts, and fixing elements in Brazil. The generator will supply exothermic gas to a continuous wire annealing furnace, which is part of the manufacturer’s efforts to meet market demand efficiently and sustainably for baling wire in the construction industry.
Using exothermic gas instead of nitrogen, the company expects to reduce operating costs, increase production efficiency, and improve the wear properties and finish of its wire products.
“By providing them with our latest generator technology," commented Marcio Boragini, sales director for Brazil at UPC-Marathon, "we have helped Jomarca improve process efficiency, achieve sustainability, and exceed their customers’ expectations for high-quality wire products.”
Jomarca already owns two endothermic gas generators from UPC-Marathon, a Nitrex company with headquarters in North America. In March of this year, the company upgraded its wire operations with a 150 m3/h capacity ExoFlex generator to ensure consistent gas composition and prevent scale formation on the wire surface.
