Jan Söderström, CEO of Quintus Technologies (formerly Avure Technologies), joined Frank Du, President of China's Yingliu Group, to celebrate the inauguration of a Quintus Hot Isostatic Press (HIP) at the Anhui Yingliu Group Huoshan Casting Co. Ltd. foundry in Anhui province, China, in early December.
The new press, model QIH 1.6 x 2.5 – 2000 – 1400M URC, brings several advanced capabilities that enable the Huoshan facility to manufacture products meeting mission-critical performance standards in the aerospace and nuclear power environments.
A work zone of 1600 mm (63 inches) in diameter and 2500 mm (98 inches) in height accommodates the size requirements for production of large aircraft engine casings and core components for nuclear power, marine engineering, metallurgy, and other applications. Quintus' proprietary Uniform Rapid Cooling (URC) technology enables increased productivity with optimal temperature control.
“Quintus HIP systems produce parts with excellent isotropic material properties and offer the highest possible density of all available compaction methods,” noted Mr. Söderström as he handed the keys to the press to Mr. Du during the inauguration ceremony. The event was attended by more than 500 guests, including representatives from a dozen prominent Chinese companies in the aviation and nuclear power industries.
Reminding the audience of the Made in China 2025 campaign to improve quality and production efficiency, Mr. Du referenced the
own strategic commitment to industrial upgrading.
