History of Harper
Harper traces its history back to John L. Harper, who patented and built the first electric kilns and furnaces in 1906 and established Harper Electric Furnace Company in 1924. At that time, Harper saw an opportunity with materials processing companies who operated combustion-heated furnaces that were incapable of providing the controlled atmosphere required to process advanced new materials. Determined to find a solution, a young engineer and an electric company executive conceived a better heating method – an electric-resistance-heated furnace capable of meeting the stringent new process requirements. The Harper Electric Furnace Corporation was born. Offering precise control of atmosphere and temperature, Harper furnaces quickly became a quality standard among materials processors and the forerunner of many innovations to come. Over the years, Harper has been a continued innovator of thermal processing solutions for the materials industry, including the first furnace to process nuclear fuels in the 1940s and the first commercial graphite-element furnace-equipment capable of operating at far higher temperatures under precise atmospheric control. Harper was a early partner to the carbon fiber industry, providing systems in the 1970s at its inception. Today, Harper is a trusted leader in thermal processing solutions for the growing carbon fiber market, and is the only thermal systems provider in the…
