The company has long engineered and provided heating elements, air heaters, and surface heaters for Original Equipment Manufacturers. These traditional products are custom heaters designed to address a client’s specific needs in the most effective and successful way possible.
Farnam’s Business Development manager, Dean Hamel, explained that “Farnam always considers the client’s entire thermal system and engineers the most effective components possible for the client’s specific set of circumstances and requirements. We’ve always had to think in terms of systems. It’s just a natural evolution to develop complete thermal systems for clients. It’s a turn key service or package we now offer.”
These thermal systems may typically include heaters, temperature sensors, blowers, thermal controls, pressure or flow switches, and other safety devices as required. These systems are usually integrated into an enclosure or housing designed to fit a specific function in a client’s product.
Some examples of recently developed systems are:
- an environmental temperature control system for a CT Scan manufacturer
- a mobile shrinking station for a packaging machinery manufacturer
- a complete dry air system developed for an industrial spray paint systems manufacturer.
Hamel says having one source design and provide an integrated thermal system appeals to many clients. “It’s hard to find a source that understands thermal systems who will develop a custom system to precisely meet all the customers requirements, test the system, and then assure that it always delivers the performance and reliability needed by the client. And we do this very effectively.” Farnam, in Asheville, NC, is an ISO 9001 certified company.
