The increasing number of mining projects has generated a growing demand for equipment and trucks for digging, conveying, and transporting equipment and minerals.
Controlled nitriding/nitrocarburizing imparts a high surface hardness which results in a higher resistance to wear, scuffing, galling, seizure, and an improvement in corrosion.
Nitrex heat-treating solutions for the oil and gas industry can help critical parts that are exposed to an extremely corrosive environment at high pressure withstand high wear demands.
The power-generation industry continues to see radical innovations, and the reduction of traditional energy derived from carbon sources will open the door to new sources of energy in our day-to-day lives.
Age hardening or precipitation hardening (also known as aging) is a change in material properties (generally hardening) effected by holding parts at moderately elevated temperatures, without any change in the chemistry of the alloy.
