Heat-Treatment

Heat Treatment

Heat treatment is a critical metallurgical process used to alter the physical and sometimes chemical properties of metals, enhancing their performance characteristics for specific applications. The process involves carefully controlled heating and cooling cycles, which are applied to metals in a precise manner to achieve desired changes in properties such as hardness, toughness, ductility, and wear resistance. Depending on the specific requirements, metals may undergo a variety of heat treatment techniques, including annealing, quenching, tempering, and normalizing.
