Heat treatment services involve altering the physical and sometimes chemical properties of materials, typically metals and alloys, through controlled heating and cooling. These processes play a crucial role in enhancing material properties across numerous industries, thereby improving the quality and performance of products consumers use in their daily lives. Since 1978, Heat Treating Services has been a leading provider of precision heat treatment solutions for various industries. As a family-owned and operated business, we have built a reputation for delivering superior quality and technical expertise to clients across multiple markets, primarily encompassing the midwest and Canada. Our Services: At HTS, we specialize in a comprehensive range of heat treatment and related services, employing state-of-the-art technology and meticulous processes to ensure the highest quality and performance for our clients. Our capabilities include: Oil Quench and Temper: This process enhances hardness and mechanical strength, making it indispensable for critical automotive gears and engine components, where durability is essential. By improving wear resistance and toughness, our oil quench and temper service prolongs the lifespan of these components, reducing maintenance costs and enhancing overall performance. Atmosphere and Non Atmosphere Sub-Critical Anneal: Offering controlled softening of materials, this service is ideal for railroad components requiring precise ductility, ensuring optimal performance and longevity. By relieving internal stresses and promoting grain refinement, our sub-critical anneal processes enhance the formability and machinability of these components, resulting in smoother operation and reduced risk of failure. Isothermal Anneal: This process achieves a uniform microstructure, particularly crucial for aerospace alloys exposed to extreme temperatures, enhancing their ability to withstand harsh operating conditions. By eliminating distortion and improving dimensional stability, our isothermal anneal service ensures precise component fit and functionality, contributing to the safety and reliability of aerospace systems. Normalize: Improving machinability and dimensional stability, this service is essential for heavy truck components such as axles and transmission parts, ensuring precise fit and functionality. By refining grain structure and relieving residual stresses, our normalize process enhances component durability and reduces the risk of premature failure, resulting in improved operational efficiency and reduced downtime. Stress Relief: By reducing internal stresses, this service ensures structural integrity in mining equipment, automotive, HVAC, and agricultural machinery, preventing premature failures and ensuring safety. Our stress relief process improves material stability and fatigue resistance, extending the service life of these components and reducing the risk of costly repairs or replacements. Benefits Across Industries: Automotive Industry: Our heat treatment processes optimize the mechanical properties of components, enhancing durability and performance. For example, in heavy truck manufacturing, our oil quench and temper services ensure transmission gears meet stringent wear resistance requirements, reducing maintenance costs and downtime. Aerospace Industry: Precision heat treatment is important in aerospace engineering to ensure materials withstand harsh environmental conditions. Our isothermal annealing services play a critical role in aerospace alloys, enabling components like turbine blades to maintain their integrity at high temperatures, thus enhancing safety and reliability.
