Heat Treatment

Enhance your metal parts with Eigen's specialised heat treatment capabilities.

What is Heat Treatment?

Heat treatment is all about fine-tuning metal from the inside out. By carefully controlling how it’s heated, how long it stays hot, and how it’s cooled down, we can enhance the metal’s core properties without altering its shape or size.

This process strengthens the material, makes it more flexible, improves impact resistance, and helps it stand up better to corrosion. It’s a precise science that brings out the best in every component.

The Benefits of Professional Heat Treatment:

  • Tune Material Performance
    Reach the desired strength, toughness, and flexibility tailored to your product’s operational requirements.
  • Boost Component Durability
    Enhance resistance to wear, stress, and fatigue, extending the service life of critical parts.
  • Enhance Machinability
    Use annealing to soften metals, making them easier to cut, form, or machine without compromising quality.
  • Maintain Quality Uniformity
    Rely on our controlled systems to deliver consistent, repeatable results across both high-volume and one-off production.

Our Meticulous Heat Treatment Process

Each cycle is designed to achieve a particular outcome and includes three essential phases:

  • Heating
    The part is uniformly raised to a precise temperature in a controlled furnace, reaching up to 2400°F (1315°C) based on the material and intended outcome.
  • Soaking
    It is held at the target temperature for a defined duration to allow full microstructural transformation within the metal.
  • Cooling (Quenching)
    Cooling is carefully managed, from fast liquid quenching to gradual furnace cooling, to lock in the required mechanical properties.
