Admire its Purity
By Alex Cannella, Associate EditorAs gear manufacturing techniques become more precise and demanding, there is a growing demand for cleaner, higher quality steel.
Gear Nitriding in Vacuum
Vacuum gas nitride processing from Solar Atmospheres can significantly increase the fatigue strength and service life of your parts. Benefits include case depths up to 0.025” and improved wear and anti-galling properties due to a 40 - 70% increase in surface hardness. Corrosion resistance is increased through nitrogen-enrichment.
Optimal gear consistency via continuous vacuum heat treatment
For the most repeatable heat treatment quality for high volume gear production, SECO/VACUUM’s UniCase Master® is a unique, continuous vacuum heat treatment system that provides unmatched case hardening consistency of gears and rings by low-pressure carburizing and high-pressure gas quenching.
