Metal hardening

The supplier Evek GmbH offers technology, equipment and consumables for various heat treatment operations for metals and alloys at favourable prices from manufacturers. The products are delivered promptly and to the address specified by the customer.

Technical characteristics

Hardening is carried out to give parts/billets increased strength and hardness (sometimes with sufficient core toughness). To increase the strength, the parts are heated to certain temperatures, kept in a heating device at these temperatures and then quickly cooled in aqueous media, oil or emulsions. The structure of hardened steel consists of residual austenite, undissolved metal carbides, and martensite. The choice of heat treatment technology depends on the structure and chemical composition of the metal, the desired properties, as well as the complexity of the products to be treated.

A distinction is made between hardening

  • - Full hardening, when the temperature of metal curing slightly exceeds the critical values;
  • - Incomplete, when the product is seasoned in the middle of the recommended temperature interval;
  • - Isothermal, when the residual austenite decays as completely as possible;
  • - Gradual cooling, when cooling is carried out sequentially first in a liquid medium, and then in air;
  • - Hardening with currents of high frequency;
  • - Hardening with self-tempering (used in the processing of tools operating under shock loads).

To buy the hardened metal at favorable prices of the manufacturer you can in the company Evek GmbH. The supplier guarantees timely delivery of products to the consumer.

The equipment

To harden metals and alloys are used:

  • Flame hardening furnaces;
  • Electric heating installations of induction type;
  • Baths with molten salts.

Modern equipment for hardening is equipped with control systems that control all process parameters, providing the desired mechanical characteristics - the depth of the hardened layer, its hardness and depth of the finished product.
