Heat treatment is a process used to alter the physical and sometimes chemical properties of industrial machinery parts. It involves controlled heating and cooling to improve the material’s hardness, strength, and durability, which makes parts perform better in demanding conditions. Whether for gears, shafts, or valves, heat treatment enhances the lifespan and reliability of machinery components.
Heat Treat Oven in-house capabilities allow us to promptly resolve urgent issues, such as replacing broken machine components like shear blades, punches, dies, and other tooling, helping keep your production line running smoothly and minimizing costly delays.
We offer a variety of heat treatment processes tailored to meet the needs of different industrial applications:
Annealing: Softens metal to relieve stress, improve machinability, and enhance ductility.
Hardening: Increases the hardness of metal to improve wear resistance and overall strength.
Tempering: Reduces brittleness of hardened materials while maintaining strength.
Stress Relieving: Reduces internal stresses to prevent cracking or distortion.
Normalizing: Improves the grain structure of metal to ensure uniform hardness.
Our Heat Treat Oven further enhances our efficiency, enabling quick turnaround times and ensuring your projects stay on track by rapidly addressing broken parts.
Capable of reaching temperatures up to 2250°F—just below the metal's melting point—it reconfigures the molecular alignment of metals, enhancing hardness and tensile strength for superior performance.
With dimensions of 12" x 20" x 12", our oven efficiently accommodates a wide range of part sizes, making it versatile for various applications. Tool steel, in particular, benefits greatly from heat treating, becoming ideal for cutting and forming other metals.
Trust us to deliver expertly heat-treated components with unmatched precision and efficiency, keeping your workflow seamless.
