Heat treatment

  • We develop heat treatment and thermochemical treatment processes for all metallic materials used in industry
  • We deliver optimal solutions enhancing the end-use properties of products
  • We employ state-of-the-art processes, including vacuum heat treatment, deep cryogenic treatment, fluidized-bed thermochemical treatment and other techniques
  • We design induction heating equipment and carry out heat treatment of specimens and prototypes
  • We conduct on-site measurement of parameters of process equipment for heat treatment
  • We can heat-treat your prototype parts in our research heat-treating shop
