    Seeking minimal deformation in a 8620 alloy with a grove...

    Thank you for your response. Here are my answers... - Normalizing sounds like a good chance to make it as you say, consistent. - We dont have stop-offs, provider didnt give a go-nogo gage so we are measuring atm. Since its a potential project, we want to make a HT that can achieve what we need...

    Seeking minimal deformation in a 8620 alloy with a grove...

    We've been working on a project for a few weeks now and so far it looks like quite a puzzle to get the right heat treatment going. The scenario is the following: We have shafts madre of alloy 8620, they are about 5" long with 3/4". The special feature they have is a grove which is about 1.5"...

    Upgrade Dewpoint meter for Endothermic Generator

    Good day, TVP: Thanks for answering. We generate endothermic atmosphere and in those three furnaces we perform mainly neuter hardening, carburizing and carbonitriding. We have a fluidized bed furnace as well were can offer nitriding and ferritic nitrocarburizing. dbooker630: Thanks a lot for...

    Upgrade Dewpoint meter for Endothermic Generator

    Hi everybody, I'm writing to ask you about recommendations for a dewpoint meter. We have been working with an Alnor 7000U but we want to upgrade to something digital and more accurate. In our plant we have 2 Endothermic Generators (1500 CFH & 2200 CFH) to feed a continuous furnace and two...

    Carburizing 1018 same or different as 1117?

    Thanks for your answer. Sorry I didn't specify the case depth spec and how it's defined. As you mentioned a microhardness test is performed on a cross section of the part defining a case depth as 50 HRC, the hardness must be greater than 50 HRC between 0.024" and 0.034"; after the treatment the...

    Carburizing 1018 same or different as 1117?

    Hello, I'm a sales engineer at a new heat treatment plant in northern Mexico. We've been running some tests for a big client that will keep one of our lines running 24/7; they came here to run the first carburizing test with some machined parts but the results didn't fall inside the specs...
