Heat Treatment & Testing

Back

Through a variety of heat treatment processes, we are able to further enhance the mechanical properties of cast components.

Utilising our own on-site heat treatment furnaces, combined with our trusted and fully accredited supply partners, we are able to offer products in the following heat treated conditions:

  • Annealed, normalised, hardened and tempered
  • Precipitation hardened
  • Vacuum solution annealed
  • Induction and case hardened
  • Nitrided

 

On completion of heat treatment processes, components will often require non-destructive and mechanical testing.  We are able to offer a full suite of testing options through our on-site and fully accredited independent test laboratories.

 

  • Dye penetrant inspection (DPI)
  • Magnetic particle inspection (MPI)
  • Liquid penetrant inspection (LPI)
  • X-Ray examination
  • Tensile testing
  • Charpy Impact testing in a range of temperature conditions
  • Positive material identification (PMI)
