Programmable vacuum furnace heat-treating with nitrogen cool, for hardening, annealing, solution treating and Precipitation age hardening.

Fluidized bed and salt marquench combination (Both 48 " working depth) for heat treating and quenching alloy and tool steels with minimum distortion. The fluidized bed furnace is used to austenitize, normalize, anneal, age harden, solution anneal, stress relieve and steam black oxide.

Induction heating, hardening both ends of machine gun ammunition belt tension lever.

Overbend straightening of machine spindle using 20 ton
Hydraulic press.

Peen straightening of hardened S7 tool steel pneumatic tool driver, to improve straightness.

Cryogenic treating of heat-treated tools and components to as low as –320 F.

Salt bath hardening of M42 HSS cutters, showing preheating, high temperature austenitizing and quenching steps in the cycle.
