Stress Relief
Vacuum treatments are an effective method to improve the mechanical and physical properties of metal materials through thermal manipulation in a controlled vacuum environment. This type of heat treatment is commonly used for sensitive materials. By removing oxygen and other gases, the formation of oxides and other unwanted chemical reactions during heat treatment is avoided.
In addition, vacuum treatments can also be used to reduce the porosity of the material and improve its resistance to corrosion and wear.
Vacuum treatments
Annealing / Solution treatment
These are used to regenerate the structures of the materials and recover states to allow other Heat treatments to be carried out.
Vacuum quenching and tempering
A highly beneficial process that improves dimensional stability and prevents decarburisation of steel compared to conventional treatments. This provides the possibility of treating a wide range of steels, including semi-finished parts.
Ageing
Process that is applied to metal alloys to improve their mechanical properties. This process is based on the controlled formation of fine, dispersed particles within the crystalline structure of the material, which increases its strength and stiffness without sacrificing resilience.
Stress Relief
Process applied to metal materials with the aim of reducing or eliminating internal stresses that may have arisen during manufacturing, welding, plastic deformation, or machining.
Special Alloys
Set of industrial processes that are used to modify the physical and mechanical properties of metal alloys, in order to improve their strength, hardness, resilience, ductility or any other specific characteristic.
