"Specialists in Heat Processing"

When you need to apply heat to a product....

In industry, it is often necessary to heat a product (and sometimes remove heat):
curing, baking, heat treating, soldering, brazing, shrink-fit and so on.

At Hartley Sales, our mission is: solutions to heat processing needs. In theory, your requirement is simple -- heat transfer will only occur due to one of 3 reasons: convection, conduction, or radiation. In practice, some more complex factors arise -- a well designed application will consider:

Material Handling - Heat-Up Time - Production Quantities - Temperature Uniformity - Overtemp Considerations - Safety - Atmosphere Protection - Process Control & Recording - Computer Interface - Testing - Power Requirements - Efficiency - Initial Cost - Cost of Ownership

Very often, a simple batch oven or furnace is the obvious answer. But occasionally we can help in offering novel and creative solutions: e.g., conveyorized systems, selective heating by induction, atmosphere protection, or modification of a standard design.

We have offices in Seattle and Portland, and a long list of satisfied customers from our 60 years of selling and servicing heat processing equipment.  Whether new or used, for large or small applications -- we welcome your contact so we can have the opportunity to earn your business.
