Normalizing Annealing

  • Homogenization annealing

    Correction of uneven distributions of constituents in raw steels, standardizing their internal structure.

  • Normalizing annealing

    A global hardening method that optimizes mechanical properties through different temperature stages.

  • Spheroidization annealing

    Treatment that provides maximum flexibility and chemical homogeneity.

  • Stress relief annealing

    Elimination of internal stresses generated by processes such as welding, restoring the original metal structure.

  • Full annealing

    Total reset, erasing all previous heat treatments

Refractory Firing

Process that ensures the performance and durability of materials in high-temperature industrial environments. This controlled technique heats bricks, mortars, and refractory concrete to optimize their mechanical and thermal properties. 


When commissioning new equipment or after repair work, a gradual temperature increase is essential to remove residual moisture and allow the binders to set properly.


Tempering

A post-quenching stabilization process that softens the metal structure, reducing brittleness and precisely adjusting the hardness to your specific requirements.

Quenching

  • Water quenching

    An intensive rapid cooling method, ideal for low-alloy steels, offering maximum structural transformation.

  • Oil quenching

    A moderate hardening process, perfect for high-alloy steels and cast irons, ensuring controlled transformation.

  • Air quenching

    A gradual approach that is particularly suitable for specialized steels, allowing for a smooth transition of metal properties.

  • Vacuum quenching

    A cutting-edge technique that preserves the integrity of the metal by eliminating any risk of decarburization, thanks to a highly controlled gaseous environment.

  • Controlled atmosphere quenching

    A sophisticated treatment that neutralizes oxygen, ensuring optimal metallurgical purity.




Flame Hardening

A localized hardening technique targeting critical areas such as wheel surfaces or gear teeth, allowing for strategic reinforcement without overall treatment.

Nitriding

  • Gas nitriding

    Creation of a hardened surface layer that boosts wear resistance while maintaining a ductile core.

  • Anti-corrosion nitriding

    Advanced treatment that combines hardening and corrosion protection, providing multi-layer defense for metal components.
