Summary
The country's manufacturing industries will have to improve their materials processing techniques via heat treatment to become competitive on an international scale. Carburizing and quenching methods for surface hardening present uncontrollable and unpredictable problems in quality. This raises the cost of manufacturing processes and causes a non-optimal process use. Manufacturing companies will have to improvetheir current case hardening methods or use selective hardening approaches to achieve their goals.

Heat treating: forecasting changes in heat treatment processing methods for the next decade.
Substantial advances in process technologies will be an absolute must for America's manufacturing industries if they are to be competitive in world markets in the coming years. One critical area that needs a major face-lift: material processing methods by heat treatment.
Most high performance parts are machined and heat treated steel because this combination of processes is usually the most cost effective method to produce a part with superior mechanical properties. The...See the full content of this document
