CLIN in Thread Rolling Dies
Posted on Apr 25, 2024The HEF Group are globally trusted by manufactures of thread rolling dies to apply controlled liquid ionic nitriding treatments (CLIN). These surface treatments are thermo-chemical diffusion treatments that enrich the surface of ferrous materials with Nitrogen & a small amount of Carbon – both of which are present in the liquid nitriding bath.
The Arcor® process represents the latest in Liquid Nitriding technology and is available from the global Technique Surfaces jobbing shop network.
The Benefits of Arcor® on Thread Rolling Dies are:
- Tool Durability: Optimal resistance against wear compared to other nitriding.
- Tool Service Time: Increased as tools are not brittle even after several reprocess
- Thermal fatigue: Improved by diffusion zone properties
- Anti-sticking: Improved by the ceramic like features of the compound layer
- Cracking Resistance: Improved from gradual heating and cooling & nitriding potential.
Techniques surfaces UK (TSUK) are based in Birmingham and are equipped to process: Flat thread rolling dies, Planetary & Circular thread rolling dies, Knurl dies, Form Rolling dies and Thread chasers in Arcor®
