The VRRC module is basically a device that is designed for rapid heat extraction (by radiation & impinged connective jets of cooled furnace atmosphere) from components as they emerge from a furnace.

Originally designed for experimental work for hardening of bearings, a variety of models have been installed for hardening of thick section air hardenable steel parts, for increased bainite content in normalised forgings and for sinter hardening.

In each case the design effort is assisted by CFD modeling and experimentation at out thermal processing facility. Development work on the VRRC is continuous and aimed at increasing the heat extraction rate. Systems are also available for use with roller hearth & walking beam sintering furnaces.
