From humble beginnings
Back in April 1999, ideas were being formed by engineers who had previously worked in a technical and commercial capacity for several well known induction furnace manufacturers, Expertise in electronic and mechanical servicing enabled this fledgling business to carve a niche in spare parts & service operating from a 1,000sq ft unit based in Haverhill , England. Soon after start up a local Aluminium foundry closed which released several electric resistance bale out furnaces to Meltech, the purchase of this stock was the companies first step into the rebuilt furnace market to which Meltech is now renowned.
By 2000, increasing quantities of used induction and electric resistance furnaces were being rebuilt and sold in addition to an increasing service and spare parts turnover meant that the company moved to a new 3500 sq ft facility.
By the end of 2001 over 30 rebuilt systems had been sold and machines were being despatched at the rate of one every three to four weeks, equipment sales stretched as far afield as Jordan, China and South Africa a as well as the UK and European market. Spare parts and field service business was also increasing, it became evident that almost all customers proffered to maintain their systems using our comprehensive in house after sales care rather than using the original equipment manufacturer.
Consistent growth
In 2006 Meltech commissioned its 100th system and finally moved into its current 7,000Sq ft facility where engineering, rebuild, service and spare parts departments were centralized, this new facility also allowed the rebuild of much larger systems than previously, furnaces up to 1500Kw and 3000kg capacity could now be handled easily.
Product development
New incoming EU regulations were introduced which encouraging customers to buy magnetically screened induction furnace bodies instead of the cheaper box type equivalents, reacting to this change in market demands, Meltech embarked on a development program which resulted in the introduction of a brand new type of induction furnace body with all the characteristics of a fully screened steel shell style furnace but the build cost and simplicity close to a box type furnace. This new product was compatible with all of the different power ratings, frequencies, styles and makes of inverter which Meltech rebuild. The first two Mag-Melt furnace bodies were performance tested in August 2008, today, many units are in operation with capacities up to 1,500kg iron.
New Partners
2009 saw the formation of Coilco Ltd, this West Midlands based facility is a welcome addition to our service business and is dedicated to the increasing maintenance and repairs of all leading brand induction heating and melting systems for both existing and new customers alike. With a quick with quality philosophy the company is able to react to customers breakdown very fast indeed, today Coilco is expanding its customer base and in conjunction with Meltech offers an ever increasing portfolio of services for anyone with induction heating or melting equipment. www.coilco.co.uk
New technology
Today Meltech have introduced its brand new Pulsar range of inverter system to complement the Mag-Melt furnace body and complete the product range, throuought this development process careful consideration was taken to design out most of the problems associated with the mainstream induction furnace brands currently on the market in order to offer the best blend of simplicity, reliability and efficiency.
Neil Moore, Joint Managing director explains " Meltech’s business values are based on customer satisfaction and a unique and creative approach to customers needs, wether the furnace is new or second hand we take great care in providing our customers with the best machine for the job with excellent after sales care".
