Heat treatment
Heat treatment is made in controlled atmosphere electrical furnances which offer a very precise temperature control.
The furnances are fitted with electronic controllers along with data logger for recording the cycle parameters.
The heat treatment cycle includes stress reliving, pre-heating, austenitizing, oil quenching and double tempering.
The heat treatment process is periodically validated to achieve consistent and good quality microstructure.
The hardness of gauges is 60-62 HRC.
