Heat Treatment Services
Pre-Heating
Purpose: Pre-heating is a preparatory step that significantly reduces the risk of cracking and results in a more ductile metallurgical structure.
Equipment We Use
Methods:
- Gas Burners
- Oxy-Gas Flames
- Electric Blankets
- Induction Heating
- Furnace Heating
Advantages of Choosing HT
Benefits:
- Prevents Hydrogen-Induced Cracking
- Improves Mechanical Properties
- Minimizes Residual Stresses
Post-Weld Heat Treatment (PWHT)
Purpose: PWHT is a post-welding process aimed at stress relief to ensure the longevity and reliability of the weld.
Methods:
- Controlled Heating
- Temperature Holding
- Controlled Cooling
Benefits:
- Increases Toughness and Ductility
- Reduces Risk of Brittle Fracture
- Improves Dimensional Stability
