Induction Hardening

Induction Hardening

Induction hardening uses electromagnetic induction to heat specific surface areas of a part — with heating times measured in seconds — followed by immediate water or polymer quenching. The rapid heating and cooling transforms the surface layer into high-hardness martensite (50–65 HRC), while unheated areas retain their original structure and properties. Unlike carburizing, induction hardening changes only the microstructure, not the chemical composition — and it acts only on selected zones.
We process 45#, 20# carbon steels, 40Cr, 35CrMo, 20CrMnTi alloy steels, 6061/6063 aluminum, 304 stainless steel, and brass. IATF 16949-certified.

Performance Highlights

 

Selective hardening - only the zones that need it

Induction hardening acts on specific areas - gear teeth, bearing journals, cam lobes - while untreated zones retain their original microstructure and properties.

01

Fast heating, minimal distortion

Heating time measured in seconds. Distortion is significantly lower than in carburizing, making induction hardening suitable for parts already machined to near-final dimensions.

02

No carburizing required - direct hardening of medium/high carbon steels

Induction hardening does not change composition. Medium/high carbon steels (45#, 40Cr) with sufficient carbon content are hardened directly, eliminating the carburizing step.

03

Controlled case depth

Case depth is controlled by adjusting frequency and heating parameters - from shallow surface hardening to deep penetration hardening.

04

Automotive critical parts

Camshafts, crankshafts, CV joints, gears, and bolts all benefit from localized induction hardening.

Applications

 

Camshafts and Crankshafts

Cam lobes and bearing journals require high wear resistance, while other areas need toughness. Induction hardening delivers selective localized hardening.

 

Gear Teeth

Gear teeth are subjected to high contact stress during meshing. Induction hardening of tooth flanks improves wear resistance and fatigue strength.

 

Drive Shafts and CV Joints

Shaft journals and CV joint raceways require localized hardening. Fast heating minimizes distortion.

 

 

 

Why Induction Hardening

 

Carburizing – hardens the entire part; cannot be localized to specific areas

Through hardening – hardens the entire part; cannot avoid areas that must remain tough

Induction hardening – acts only on selected zones. Minimal distortion. High efficiency.

For camshafts, gears, drive shafts - where localized wear resistance is required and other areas must remain tough - induction hardening is the production method.
