Plasma, Gas Nitriding and Nitrocarburizing for Engineering Components and Metal-Forming Tools
Wear, corrosion and fatigue properties are strongly dependent on surface quality and its modifications. Thermochemical methods such as gas and plasma nitriding allow for enhancement of these properties in most severely loaded (mechanically and/or chemically) applications without causing any changes … Continue reading

Long and Large Parts can be Nitrided!
Long and/or large parts processed in the finished condition benefit from UltraGlow® Ion (Pulse Plasma) Nitriding because they require precise control of the nitrided structure, dimensional stability, and a minimized need for polishing after treatment. The working parameters of Advanced … Continue reading
What is Carbonitriding?
Carbonitriding is a modified form of gas carburizing in which ammonia is added to the carburizing atmosphere. Thus, both and nitrogen from the ammonia are diffused into the steel simultaneously. The diffusion of carbon results in a high carbon surface while … Continue reading
