Parts in the Transmissions and Drive systems Industry:

  • Gears (Spur Gears, Helical Gears, Bevel Gears, Hypoid Gears, Internal Gears, Rack and pinion Gears, Worm Gears, Sprockets)
  • Shafts (Eccentric Shafts, Gear Shafts, Screw Shafts, Crankshafts, Camshafts, Cams)
  • Shaft Couplings

Requirements for the parts:

  • For high Hardness
  • For high Wear resistance
  • For high Fatigue strength
  • For Plastic deformation resistance
  • For Lower friction

Ion Nitriding Solutions:

  • Significantly increasing the surface hardness, wear (abrasive and adhesive) resistance and fatigue life of the parts, improving their lifespan and performance.

  • Reducing the friction coefficient.

  • Increasing the corrosion resistance.

Improving these parameters will save from downtime and maintenance costs.

Steel Grades Used:
