Granco Clark Provides Sapa Extrusions With Hot-Jet Furnace and Hot Saw

Belding, MI – Sapa Extrusions in Mississauga, Ontario, has replaced an existing Turla log furnace and shear with a Granco Clark Hot-Jet Furnace and Hot Saw.

The 3,600-ton metric press has the capacity to cut up to 12” diameter logs. Using an overhead billet manipulator to deliver the log to the press, this eliminates billet rolling and the possible separation of a two-piece billet.

Founded in 1947, Granco Clark began manufacturing billet furnaces and has evolved into a worldwide, cutting-edge single-source supplier and leading equipment manufacturer in the aluminum extrusion industry.

With a proven track record of manufacturing the most dependable and durable equipment in the business, Granco Clark continually develops groundbreaking technology to improve its products – ranging from billet log furnaces and hot log saws to age ovens and stacking equipment.

The company was the first to introduce the integrated control system technology that has since developed into SCSExtrude – the next-generation technology for optimizing automated extrusion line performance.

Another key to Granco Clark’s success is listening to customers and designing its products to their specific needs. The end results are improved productivity, energy conservation, waste reduction, and cost savings for customers.
