Heat Treatment Furnace Design and Build, Sheffield
At Starweld Sheffield, we specialise in the design, fabrication, and installation of heat treatment furnaces and associated ancillary equipment. Recently, we partnered with a multi-national manufacturer of forged products, delivering a complete turnkey solution for a series of custom-built heat treatment furnaces.
Heat Treatment Furnace Design Using Advanced CAD
Our in-house mechanical design engineers provided a full CAD design and 3D modelling service, using SolidWorks to simulate performance, identify potential thermal stress points, and optimise the furnace structure before fabrication. With years of experience designing high-temperature industrial equipment, our team ensured that every engineering and performance specification was met.
Key features of the design process:
-
Full CAD design and stress analysis using SolidWorks
-
3D modelling to simulate thermal performance
-
Custom design tailored to client requirements and site specifications
-
Integration of ancillary components into overall system

Steel Fabrication & Welding in Sheffield
Once the design was approved, our skilled steel fabrication and welding team in Sheffield took over, manufacturing the main furnace body and critical framework in our fully equipped workshop. We adhere to the highest quality standards for structural integrity and thermal resilience.
Fabrication highlights:
-
Heavy-duty steel structure suitable for high-temperature applications
-
MIG and TIG welding carried out by certified professionals
-
Quality assurance and compliance with industrial standards
-
In-house fabrication ensures full control over production timelines

Precision Engineering for Ancillaries
All ancillary components — including support structures, pipework, and fittings — were engineered and machined by our precision engineering department, ensuring perfect compatibility with the main furnace body.
Ancillary solutions included:
-
Custom fittings, brackets, and flanges
-
Machined parts for thermal and mechanical systems
-
Full integration into CAD model for accurate assembly
On-Site Installation & Commissioning
After fabrication, the heat treatment furnace body was transported to the client’s site, where our mobile fabrication and welding team completed the final assembly and on-site welding within strict project deadlines. Our seamless coordination ensured a smooth transition from design to commissioning.
