It is said that heat treatment as an important industrial process which changes the physical and sometimes chemical properties of a metalwork. Heat treatment technique is often used after investment casting process is finished.
As a leading professional investment casting manufacturer, we take full advantage of the heat treatment technique, altering small or large, light or heavy metal parts in terms of obtaining a desirable mechanical properties, by which it means a higher level of the characteristics of the metal parts.
Here's a good question to consider: when should heat treatment technique to be applied, typically the investment castings that need to undertake a higher level of pressure, or force in the other words, it is important to keep a metal part in one piece (should not be broken or deform easily) so long as possible while remain its mechanical characteristics. A good example to be used to explain should be wear resistant parts, such that, with these strengthened mechanical properties thanks to heat treating process, the wear life is extended by 30% - 50% compared to normal metal piece before heat treatment. A good quality and longer wear life product would save customers' cost at in a dramatic way.
Many of our types of products are required to be done heat treatment after lost wax casting process, heat treating not only improves the mechanical properties of the castings, but also plays an important role in quality control. By using heat treatment technique, we could even guarantee the specific number of the mechanical properties like tensile strength, impact or hardness.
In order to greatly improve the performance and efficiency of the metal parts under different using conditions, our engineer team design a comprehensive plan to guarantee the desirable result for our customers.
