Heating Ovens
Automotive
MECHVAC designed, manufactured and installed 8 heating ovens for the Holden Assembly Line. These ovens are used to heat wiring harnesses, looms and decklid seals in cold weather to 45 deg C to make them flexible as an ergonomic aid for the assembly process.
These projects were design and construct contracts that were completed on time in 2013 and 2014.
The oven is terrific. Thank you for all your help/design re this. To quote the operators "the seals fit to the decklid like butter" This is a fantastic ergonomic improvement.
