Minimising downtime and reducing costs with a Hot Box TUS
A temperature uniformity survey (TUS) is a test during which a calibrated field test instrument such as a data logger and calibrated thermocouples are used to measure temperature variation in furnaces prior to and after temperature stabilisation. Today industries such as aerospace and automotive manufacturers require all furnaces in which parts are heat treated and subsequently incorporated into the final product to be surveyed according to a strict specification. Suppliers to the aerospace industry comply to the AMS2750E specification and in the automotive industry suppliers comply to CQI-9. Surveys are generally carried out at set time periods or after any major repair work or maintenance has been carried out on the furnace.
