endothermic generator

An automotive manufacturer in South America has recently placed a follow-up order for a second Endothermic generator from a manufacturer of industrial process control, automation, and digitalization solutions with North American locations.

UPC-Marathon, a Nitrex company, installed a 200 m³/h EndoFlex unit last year. The new generator, with a similar capacity, aims to enhance stability, to ensure consistent composition and gas flows, and to prioritize quality of automotive gear boxes while achieving efficiencies in heat treatment operations.

Prior to adopting the EndoFlex solution, the manufacturer relied on four generator units, each with a capacity of 70 m³/h and consuming 80 kW of power. With the same 80 kW of power consumption, the EndoFlex generator delivers a 200 m³/h capacity.

This transition to the new unit represents a 75% reduction in power consumption and a contribution to operational efficiency and sustainability efforts. The new generator streamlines maintenance procedures, adheres to stringent quality standards, and reduces CO₂ emissions. Control over gas quality and production for the neutral hardening furnace enhances product quality, reduces operating costs, and optimizes energy consumption. By automatically adjusting gas production to match real-time furnace demand, the generator eliminates overproduction and waste.

“We’re proud to continue our partnership with this automotive customer,” remarked Marcio Boragini, UPC-Marathon’s Sales Director for Brazil. “Moreover, EndoFlex . . . empower[s] the manufacturer to achieve their business objectives fast, while reinforcing our commitment to [drive] success together.”
