LaserHeat Pinpoint Treating

LaserHeat Pinpoint Treating is a high-powered process that provides surface hardening to a localized area without altering the chemistry of the entire part. This allows users to focus on a specific critical-wear section and dramatically enhance the metallurgical properties in that area. Typical flame- and induction-hardening methods require the entire part to be treated, which calls for a high thermal input, creates distortion, impedes part-processing speeds, and hinders accuracy. In contrast, this pinpoint treatment service can be applied to many high-wear components, such as spindles, transmission shafts, pump shafts, engine cylinders, hydraulic cylinder rams, mixing paddles, and other offshore and onshore components that are continually exposed to volatile or stressful environments.
