and dimensional stability.
Stress Relieving
Relieve the residual stress in your parts, caused by welding and shearing, to a minimum at our plant. You can also get a subcritical annealing treatment for greater cold formability.

Heat Set and Flattening
If your stamped components are performing poorly, it is most likely due to dimensional inaccuracies. That is something our heat setting and flattening treatment can quickly fix!

Shot Peening
Order a shot peening or vapor blasting treatment to enhance compressive residual stress and to clean the gear components. We use high-quality blasting and peening media.

Quality Systems
A robust IATF 16949 / ISO 9001 Certified QMS emphasizes defect prevention and the reduction of process variation and waste in the automotive industry supply chain.
Vacuum and Oil Hardening
The primary advantage of vacuum technology is the absence of oxygen in the furnaces at high heat, up to 1000 º C, which is especially critical on tool steels.
