Sintavia, based in Hollywood, Florida, purchased the DCAHT system from DELTA H TECHNOLOGIES. In addition to aerospace and defense, the company provides advanced manufacturing for critical industries such as oil and natural gas and industrial gas turbomachinery.

“The DCAHT is a great addition to our machine fleet in our new facility,” said Doug Hedges, president of Sintavia. “We are impressed with its performance and complex capabilities such as quenching to our customer specifications. We look forward to meeting the furnacing needs of our customers with this advanced system.”

“The collaboration with the Sintavia team has been an exciting experience as they have proven themselves as a leader in the industrialization of Additive Manufacturing production,” said Ellen Conway Merrill, DELTA H vice president. “The DELTA H DCAHT furnace was a perfect fit as it has enabled them to immediately process aluminum-based AM parts, as well as other alloys requiring heat treatment. We look forward to being a part of their continued success.”

The DELTA H DCAHT furnace features dual chambers operable to 1200°F and 500°F with precision control and temperature uniformity, qualifying as Class 2 (+/-10°F) per AMS2750E and in full compliance with all aerospace pyrometry standards and Nadcap.
