Heat treating is a crucial part of the process in the manufacturing of most steel products. Because it is one of the final steps in the fabrication process, you want to make sure to do the heat treatment correctly, as it is actually possible to mess up your manufactured steel piece so much with poor […]
We thought it might be interesting to provide a little education on some of the materials we provide heat treatment services on. Today, we’d like to teach you a little about titanium, a rugged metal we work with day in and day out. An overview of titanium—what makes it special? Since titanium was discovered at […]
Metallurgy is a fascinating field, but as the professionals know, there’s much more to metallurgy than simply creating metal parts and machines. The steps that follow are just as important, because some steps in the process—like heat treating and abrasive blasting—are needed to reinforce and protect metal objects. This is pretty interesting stuff. But at […]
Metal heat treating is the process of heating and cooling metals and alloys to alter their physical and mechanical properties without changing their shapes. The process increases the metal’s strength and formability, improving the performance of many different metals in all kinds of applications. The applications and processes of metal heat treating have come a […]
Metal heat treatments are designed to alter the properties of a metal without changing its shape. Heat treatment in Gastonia, NC is a process that can be applied to a variety of materials and is used for many different reasons. Treating metal with heat can change its physical and chemical properties to alter factors like […]
