Carburizing: Thermochemical treatment carried out in austenitic field that aims to enrich the surface layer of the steel with carbon, through the phenomenon of diffusion in solid phase.
Recarburization: restoration of the amount of carbon in steels in the case of previous decarburization processes.
Carbonitriding: Thermochemical treatment carried out in austenitic field in a medium capable of simultaneously releasing carbon and nitrogen.
Our thermochemical treatments on steel are carried out in appropriate atmospheres generated by the use of “technical gases”.
The SOLO Swiss plant, thanks to their useful dimensions, allow the vertical hardening of parts up to 1050 mm in height. In addition, multi-sector electric heating, together with the type of distribution of the charge, allows an excellent temperature uniformity within the chamber allowing better control over deformations.
