CLIN in Thread Rolling Dies
The 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.
