The quality specifications for processing heart wires demands manufacturing methods that are precise and yield bright, clean results. Â Vacuum furnace processing is precise and exacting to assure heart wires meet specifications.
91´«Ã½, located in the greater Philadelphia area, specializes in vacuum furnace heat treating.  Furnaces up to 12 feet long offer the capability needed to vacuum stress relieve the various lengths of stainless steel heart wires.
Proprietary thermal cycles have been developed to enhance micro-manipulation during clinical procedures. Â Solar provides furnace fixturing to maintain wire straightness and inhibit entanglement. Â This fixturing enables the vacuum furnace to process large quantities of the wires in one cycle.
