Legend has it that a Syrian king once wanted to punish a criminal in particularly gruesome manner. He ordered that he be impaled upon a red-hot sword. To the astonishment of the executioner, the blade proved to be harder and more flexible afterwards. What can we learn from history? Even before this modern technological age, our predecessors – particularly the more experimentally minded swordsmiths – discovered that through heating and quenching the hardness of steel can be markedly increased. This is called hardening. A cast iron pan which falls on to a stone floor, shatters – because cast...

Ipsen covers the whole heat treatment range. In doing so, there are two Ipsen furnace types which are, more than any others, used in industrial heat treatment: atmosphere and vacuum furnaces. When heat treating large workpiece batches, Ipsen Atmosphere furnaces are used. Carburisation, carbon nitriding, bright hardening and carbon-free bright annealing take place in an atmosphere in which the carbon content is regulated. All tempering processes are controlled using the Ipsen Carbon Sensor® and computer-based measurement and control system. By contrast, heat treatment of high alloy steels...

Ipsen’s heat treatment systems represent the optimum solution for today’s commonly used materials and technologies. Nevertheless, when it comes to improving steel properties, furnace technology is not the only important factor. It also depends on the use of special processes and their precise control. Here once more, Ipsen is a pioneer in the field. The innovative SolNit® process ensures that steel which must not only be hard but also exceptionally corrosion-resistant, can for the first time be hardened using solution nitriding. The result is steels which are acid-resistant and are suitable...
