Nitrex will use this technique occasionally when sand blasting would be considered too rough.

The main purpose will usually be an improvement and homogenization of the grain structure.

As an alternative to gas nitriding, nitriding plasma (ion) nitriding process has been developed to overcome the shortcomings of the earlier traditional uncontrolled gas nitriding processes

Depending on the need, the technique is used either before heat treatment (preparation) or after (e.g., removal of oxidation).

Certain types of components, particularly longer objects such as shafts, tend to distort in high temperature treatment.

As the name of the process clearly indicates, Stress Relieving is used to reduce the residual stresses in the microstructure

This premium quality Vacuum Annealing method protects the components’ surfaces from chemical reactions

Vacuum Brazing uses a vacuum furnace, but it is not, strictly speaking, a heat-treating process.

It is a thermal process of simultaneously diffusing both carbon and nitrogen into ferrous alloys under partial pressure.
