[Case Study] Research Institution B

From material selection to surface treatment and heat treatment, we offer suitable processing methods tailored to your application!

We received a consultation from Research Institution B, requesting hardness while ensuring the contour accuracy of the sliding parts (with a material preference of S50C and a hardness of HRC 50 or higher). Due to the possibility of deformation during heat treatment, we proposed nitriding after machining; however, it was noted that nitriding could pose durability issues for the sliding parts. Therefore, we changed the material to SCM440 and proposed heat treatment after machining. By switching to a material that has less thermal distortion compared to S50C, we were able to secure the contour accuracy. This also allowed us to reduce finishing costs, ultimately keeping the total cost down. 【Case Study】 ■ Customer's Challenge - Need for hardness while ensuring the contour accuracy of the sliding parts ■ Proposal - Change the material to SCM440 and propose heat treatment after machining ■ Result - Secured contour accuracy - Managed to keep the total cost down *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
