Faced with ever-increasing energy costs, customers working with steel and metals can rely on API Schmidt-Bretten for efficient heat recovery solutions. The primary applications of our Schmidt SIGMA plate heat exchangers include the cooling and temperature control of various media used in metal processing, such as grinding and cutting oils, emulsions, cooling water, and hydraulic oils.
Oil or water quenching baths are used for thermal processing in metal engineering. Since the heat generated is usually greater than the bath can absorb through natural convection, the contents of the bath must be force-cooled. To this end, the high efficiency of our plate heat exchangers can be relied upon.
