Unlocking the Heat:10 FAQs About Induction Hardening What exactly is induction hardening? Induction hardening is a heat treatment process that uses high-frequency electromagnetic fields to rapidly heat the surface of a metal workpiece. This targeted heating, followed by controlled cooling (quenching), creates a hardened surface layer with improved wear resistance and fatigue strength. What makes … Read more
Induction Hardening: Maximizing Surface Hardness and Wear Resistance What is Induction Hardening? The Principles Behind Induction Hardening Electromagnetic Induction Induction hardening is a heat treatment process that selectively hardens the surface of metal components by utilizing the principles of electromagnetic induction. This process involves passing a high-frequency alternating current through an induction coil placed around … Read more
Induction Hardening and tempering Surface Process Induction Hardening Induction Hardening is a process of heating followed by cooling generally fast for increase hardness and mechanical strength of steel. To this end, the steel is heated to a temperature slightly higher than the upper critical (between 850-900ĀŗC) and then cooled more or less quickly (depending on … Read more
