Heat Treatment is a series of controlled processes used to modify the physical and chemical properties of metals to meet specific mechanical requirements. This involves heating or cooling the material to precise temperatures, followed by controlled cooling rates to achieve targeted attributes such as increased hardness, tensile strength, toughness, or ductility. These processes are critical for optimizing the material's durability, performance, and suitability for demanding applications.
At KPS Forge, we employ a comprehensive range of heat treatment techniques, including Normalizing, Tempering, Hardening, Quenching, and Solution Annealing. Each method is performed in strict accordance with international standards and follows validated Heat Treatment (HT) procedures. Our procedures are meticulously documented and validated for each process and material grade, ensuring consistent quality and desired material properties. These treatments eJectively relieve internal stresses, refine grain structure, and enhance mechanical properties to meet stringent industry specifications.
