SURFACE HARDENING
This method can also be used to harden large components or complex geometries. Induction or flame heating is applied to the loaded zones on the workpiece until the respective hardening temperature is reached, after which the workpiece is quenched.
Our personnel's know-how and qualifications adopt an especially important role in the surface hardening of large workpieces, and this has been a decisive factor in establishing the reputation of Härterei Reese as a company with a particularly high quality awareness and customer orientation.
This experience over many years has been instrumental in optimising methods and finding component-based solutions for both flame and induction hardening, whereby reproducibility is greatly enhanced by specific definitions of machine parameters. All this makes surface hardening a technical and economical alternative to conventional case hardening in many instances.
   
The plant run by Härterei Reese can surface-harden workpieces up to 16 t and 10 m in length. Induction coils are available for many standard workpieces, minimising job times.
