Heat treatment is a controlled thermal process used to alter the physical and mechanical properties of metal components — improving their strength, hardness, wear resistance, and overall performance. At R.K. Industries, heat treatment is an integral part of our value-added services, especially for cold forged or machined parts that require enhanced durability. By offering multiple heat treatment methods in-house, we provide precise, reliable, and repeatable metallurgical enhancements for critical applications across industries.
We operate a dedicated heat treatment setup designed to meet diverse strength, hardness, and metallurgical property requirements. Capabilities include:
This in-house thermal capability reduces turnaround times and gives customers better control over part performance.
01
Define mechanical properties needed
02
Choose between annealing, hardening, or normalising
03
Components heated using defined time-temp cycles
04
Parts cooled using air, oil, or water based on the process
05
Post-treatment parts tested using Rockwell or Vickers systems
06
Microstructure and grain validation as needed
Heat treatment enhances component performance where mechanical loads, friction, or wear are involved. We treat parts such as:
Whether to harden a gear tooth or soften a forged blank, our heat treatment ensures the part is ready for its application.
Our heat treatment processes are closely monitored and validated using both mechanical and metallurgical inspection tools:
This robust quality framework ensures our thermal processes consistently meet part performance requirements.
