Blast Cleaning
After the heat treatment of metal and steel components, it’s common to see the formation of an oxide layer or scale. Blast cleaning, specifically shot and grit blasting, is employed to combat these undesired formations and enhance the overall quality of the finished parts. Let’s explore the process, its benefits, and important considerations:
Deep Freezing Cryogenic Treatments
Welcome to our exploration of the technical and practical aspects of cryogenic treatment of steel and aluminum parts. This technique offers manifold benefits, especially when applied after heat treatment. Whether you’re seeking to understand the theoretical underpinnings or the hands-on processes, we’ve got you covered.
Mechanical Testing
Steel and aluminum are two metals ubiquitously used in various industries, from automotive to aerospace and construction to consumer electronics. One of the critical processes these metals undergo before final use is heat-treatment.

Straightening
Heat-treatment of metals, including steel and aluminum, is a method employed to modify their mechanical properties. However, during this process, mechanical deformation and the manifestation of stresses can cause parts to warp or bend. This distortion, often exceeding the acceptable tolerances in straightness and flatness, necessitates the straightening of these parts post heat-treatment.
Stress Relieving
Stress relieving is a heat treatment technique commonly employed across various industries. This umbrella term encompasses a wide range of processes but at its core, aims to address the internal stresses present in metal parts.
Jig Tempering
When working with thin plates and square shafts crafted from tool steels, the intricacies of their properties can lead to challenges during the hardening cycles. Warping is a common occurrence, which if left unaddressed, can compromise the utility and aesthetics of the final product.
Final Stress Tempering
Steel dies, with their pivotal role in shaping materials into precise forms, must maintain a robustness and resilience against various operational stresses. Final Stress Tempering is an advanced technique that ensures steel dies not only meet their intended purpose but also prolong their service life.
