WHAT IS HEAT TREATMENT?

Although most people don’t know what heat treatment is, it’s actually an essential part of the manufacturing process. That’s because heat treating allows a metal piece to be improved in order for the material to better withstand wear and tear. Heat treatment involves heating a metal or alloy to a specific temperature and then cooling it to harden the material. 

Heat treatment can be used at different stages in the manufacturing process to change certain properties of that metal or alloy. For example, you might use heat treatment to make it stronger, harder, more durable, or more ductile, depending on what the material needs in order to perform properly. 

Some notable industries in which heat treatment plays an important role include the Petrochemical, Energy, Fabrication, Oil and Gas industry.

HEAT TREATMENT PROCESS

WELDING & IT'S EFFECTS

EFFECTS OF WELDING

Welding joins two metal components together by fusion. As the molten pool follows the joint axis the components are heated, non-uniformly and subsequently cooled, also non-uniformly.

PREHEAT & POSTHEAT

PREHEAT & POSTHEAT

Is the application of heat to a base metal prior to and throughout welding, to drive off moisture, reduce the cooling rate, and increasing hydrogen diffusion within the weld to prevent cracking
