STEELMAN, INC.
ARCATA, CA

About Steelman Industries Steelman Industries, Inc was incorporated in 1957. Primarily serving the oil and gas industry, the company manufactured electrical controls and equipment, including the one-of-a-kind static phase converters. A division of this new company was an electric motor repair shop that serviced the East Texas area. Business quickly increased to the point that a larger process oven was needed for the rewinding operation. Drawing on their engineering, metal fabrication, and electrical control experience, Steelman designed and built their own industrial process oven. A few weeks after the oven was completed, a vendor saw the oven during his visit and asked about the manufacturer. He was amazed to discover that it was manufactured in-house! He immediately wanted to offer the Steelman Process Oven to the motor shop industry, and the Steelman Oven line was born! In the early 1980’s Steelman expanded their electrical control line to include rotary phase convertors and power factor correction equipment. In 1992, Steelman entered the heat-cleaning industry by introducing their Advanced Burn-off Oven with patented Automatic Process Control and Top Down Heating, which quickly gained the same reputation of quality that has become synonymous with Steelman. For more than 60 years Steelman has been constantly working to make their quality equipment and customer service even better.

Steelman Industries For over 50 years Steelman Industries, Inc has been a leading manufacturer of high-quality Industrial Process ovens, Burn-off Ovens, Power Factor Correction Equipment, and Phase Convertors. Steelman manufactures custom sized ovens for your specific application. Both the Steelman Process Ovens and Burn-off Ovens are used in a wide variety of industries including finishing and coatings, electric motor and coil winding, rubber, fibers and plastics and more. Steelman Phase Converters offer three phase power when only single phase power is available. Steelman Power Factor Correction capacitors reduce electrical load by offsetting the magnetizing current of motors. Steelman Industries, Inc. Steelman Industries, Inc. Steelman’s patented technologies are a must for cleaning dies, molds, breaker plates, extruder screws, and other expensive production tooling. Top-Down Heating introduces heat above the products, unlike competitor ovens, which are bottom fired. In Bottom fired ovens, tooling is exposed directly to 1400° F plus temperatures and combustion gases. Steelman’s patented radial Venturi Diffuser further protects valuable tooling by mixing oven atmospheric gases with combustion gases prior to part contact. Rate of Change technology eliminates unnecessary moisture being added to each cycle minimizing flash rust. Automatic process control eliminates operator input of time & temperature. The Steelman oven automatically adjusts to the mass of the tooling that is being cleaned. Steelman Industries, Inc.
