Surface Treatments using Fluidized Bed Furnaces
SCHWING uses external heating, so any atmosphere that is used in conventional heat treatment processing can be utilized to fluidize the bed. This includes thermal processes where the surface layer is treated, leading to a higher hardness which is typically more resistant than the core of the material.
The thermos-chemical surface treatments most often used for fluidizing are:
- Nitriding
- Nitrocarburizing
- Carburizing
- Carbonitriding
- Oxidized
