The wear caused by pellets has decreased, and there was no hole even after two years of use!
In companies that manufacture automotive parts, resin pellets are sent to numerous molding machines to mold plastic products. When supplying the molding machines through piping from the tank, air is used to transport the pellets over long distances, crawling along the ceiling, which puts stress on the curves along the way, leading to holes forming in about a month. As a solution, "New Kanak treatment" was applied to the piping. The wear caused by the pellets was reduced, and the piping did not develop holes even after two years of use. 【Case Summary】 ■ Conventional Issues - Holes in piping due to wear ■ Treatment Effects (due to improved surface hardness) - Reduction in wear *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Kanak processing is a gas nitriding treatment using a unique method. The material is held in a heating atmosphere of around 500°C for several hours, allowing nitrogen to diffuse from the surface of the steel and react with metal elements to form a hardened layer. Unlike conventional nitriding treatments, there are very few brittle iron nitride compounds near the surface, and the high compressive residual stress along with a smooth hardness distribution are characteristics of Kanak processing.
