High-Efficiency Endogas Generators

We design and manufacture endogas generators for carburizing, carbonitriding and controlled-atmosphere heat treatment, delivering high gas yield, reduced consumption and industrial reliability.

Process performance

Stable atmosphere. Reduced consumption. Reliable operation.

La Fornitecnica endogas generators are engineered for continuous, controlled production of endothermic atmosphere, configured according to process requirements and required flow rate.

The system can be integrated with oxygen probes, gas analyzers and automatic carbon-potential control.

Operating principle

How endothermic atmosphere is produced

Air and natural gas are accurately metered and reacted at high temperature in the presence of a catalyst, producing an atmosphere mainly composed of CO, H₂ and N₂.

The system controls retort temperature, air and gas flow rates, pressure, safety functions and operating conditions.

ControlIndustrial PLC and HMI
RegulationAutomatic air/gas ratio control
IntegrationO₂ probes and gas analyzers
ApplicationsCarburizing, carbonitriding and hardening
