Heat Treating of Steels & Cast Irons for the Development of Microstructures and Mechanical Properties in Base Materials

30 June 2016

Fine manufacturing processes create sturdy cast iron items and robust steel-reinforced components that resonate with structural soundness, but such mechanical solidity doesn't just happen, not without an incorporated processing stage that intelligently manipulates key metallic properties until they fit a specified application.

Flame Hardening and Induction Heating: What are The Differences?

17 June 2016

In the foundry, blazing hot furnaces melt metal and produce castings, parts that are imbued with crude properties. It is then down to special alloy-refining facilities to alter those material characteristics, to intelligently manipulate key microcrystalline properties within the alloy so that the metal suits its application.
