Our Culture and Mission
Leading Industrial Furnace Manufacturer Since 1959
Consolidated Engineering Company is a top-quality industrial furnace manufacturer. We design and supply heat treatment products that meet the strict metallurgical properties requirements of industrial manufacturing companies all over the world.
Simply put, we make metal stronger through heat treatment. CEC furnaces enable industrial companies to make better products: more efficient engines made with stronger metal, lighter airplanes, and safer car bodies. Our furnaces help make everything from NASA spaceship parts to the wrench in your toolbox.
We have been manufacturing industrial level furnaces since 1959 in the Atlanta area. During that time, 3,400 of our machines have been purchased and installed by our customers. 89% of our sales are from repeat customers, a testament to the quality of our products and services. Our staff is uniquely qualified in the areas of electrical, thermal, mechanical and materials applications for industrial furnaces and heat treating equipment. Each project is handled by a trained project engineer to ensure the overall success of the project.
The innovations that we have made in the area of industrial furnaces have resulted in over 140 U.S. patents. Our engineering process begins with an initial consultation with one of our applications engineers who will talk you through different the types of equipment to fit your needs. After the initial application is complete, we will look at different options for your furnace based on your product needs. Our American fabrication facility is committed to exceeding customer expectations in furnace reliability and performance.
All of our products are developed using high end software and in-house testing to accurately predict what fan flow and pressure will be required. This application of software and years of testing provides a unique ability to predict which components and processes will work for your needs. Along with our products we offer replacement parts for our products and a great deal of competitor products.
When it comes time to install your new industrial furnace, CEC field technicians will be there to help with proven installation, training and starting procedures to ensure the safe and proper operation of your new equipment. We also offer guidance on developing a team framework and ways to optimize budget, timeliness, quality and local need.
Our years of experience have allowed us to develop unique furnace types for different industries such as aerospace, railroad, forging and various aluminum and steel applications. We offer several industrial furnace designs to serve your needs including:
- Pusher furnaces
- Roller hearth furnaces
- Tip up furnaces, IQ furnaces
- Annealing furnaces
- Batch furnaces
- Drop bottom furnaces
- Car bottom and mobile chain furnaces
