Since pioneering a patented heating concept in 1915, Maumee-based Surface Combustion has manufactured industrial heat-treat and thermal-processing furnaces, including its Allcase® batch integral quench system introduced in the early 1950s. The company pairs new standard and custom equipment with in-house controls, metallurgical testing, and engineering support for demanding applications such as aerospace and castings. Its long-running aftermarket operation also maintains historical drawings and bills of materials for nearly every furnace it has built, supporting repairs, rebuilds, and retrofits throughout the equipment’s service life.
