ANNOUNCEMENT
Visit by ALMOR’s ECONWELD Partners
ALMOR was pleased to receive Dr Francesca Colombo of the University
of Genoa and Mr Tim Bosch from TNO Holland, pictured below with
Claudious Kanyisei (an ALMOR Plater/Welder).
Dr Francesca Colombo & Mr Tim Bosch
The purpose of the visit was to undertake measurements aimed at
quantifying the effects of welding activities on the body. Areas of
measurement included muscle activity (using surface Electromyography)
and posture/flexions (using Electrogoniometry).
ECONWELD will now move on to take the same measurements in other European countries.
Please visit www.econweld.com for further information.
September 2006
ALMOR's partnership with Nigel Tucker (Heat Treat Solutions) has
yielded a range of successful atmosphere control products which include
the innovative Single Point 3-Gas Infra Red Analyser (Gas Pro-C) and
the 'EuroSensor' Oxygen Probe.
From August 2006 it has been agreed that the manufacture and support
of these products will transfer to ALMOR's Nottingham facility, after
which Nigel will further develop his career within the Eurotherm
organisation.

NEW PRODUCTS
December 2005
ALMOR has introduced a new range of portable infrared gas analysers, specifically designed for the heat treatment industry.
The 'GasPro-C' range can be used for monitoring, trouble shooting
and optimisation of atmospheres used for carburising, carbonitriding
and neutral hardening. The 'GasPro 100-C' model is a CO2 single gas
analyser, which allows the user to input the furnace %CO, temperature
and oxygen probe millivolts to calculate the %IR carbon potential and
suggested 'Process Factor'/'CO Factor'.
The 'GasPro 300-C Advance' model is a portable version of the
well-proven 'Ultracarb 100 Lite' automatic oxygen probe compensation
system.
The 'GasPro 300-C Advance' calculates the 'Process Factor' or 'CO
Factor' based on the %IR carbon and sets this value, via a serial link
in the pre-existing carbon controller. The oxygen probe may be sooted
or even failing, the 'GasPro 300-C Advance' will compensate.
The portable version allows the instrument to be moved between furnaces to control the atmosphere for critical loads.
Alternatively, it can be used on individual furnaces, allowing it to be used as a troubleshooting tool on other equipment.
