The Heat Treatment of Hot Die Material for Tools Used in Forging Processes

18 November 2016

Hot die materials are burdened with a formidable task, which is an elaborate way of saying high temperatures and higher pressures are at work. The forging process applies compressive force and heat to the tools used in forging processes, so deformation stress is a major issue. Fortunately, heat treatment techniques […]

What is Carbonitriding?

15 November 2016

As we discuss carbonitriding, expect to be carried through a heat treatment process that relies heavily on the control of local atmospheric variables. In particular, as the label implies, carbon and nitrogen atoms are injected into the controlled environment. Undoubtedly, this is an essential technique, one that surface hardens base […]
