Vacuum Heat Treating

Process and Capabilities

Byron Products stands out in the industry with its wide-ranging process capabilities. Our heat treating proficiencies include

• Solution heat treating
• Precipitation hardening
• Age hardening
• Annealing
• Normalizing
• Full process development

Variables such as temperature, temperature ramp rate, cool rate, hold time, and atmospheric condition all play a major role in the heat treatment process. Parts are quenched in the vacuum chamber after brazing and heat treating with Argon and/or Nitrogen.

Our process capabilities extend across a variety of materials. We handle stainless steel with the same ease as nickel and nickel-based alloys, titanium alloys, cobalt-based alloys, and copper alloys. Each material comes with its unique properties and processing needs, and our team has the experience and training to handle them all.
