Service Description : Accurate Edge performs case harden... Accurate Edge performs case hardening of metallic components up to 50 HRS and 0.060” Induction hardening is a method of quickly and selectively hardening the surface of a metal part. A copper coil carrying a significant level of alternating current is placed near (not touching) the part. Heat is generated at, and near the surface by eddy current and hysteresis losses. Quench, usually water-based with an addition such as a polymer, is directed at the part or it is submerged. This transforms the structure to martensite, which is much harder than the prior structure. The benefits of Induction Hardening is an Increase in Strength and wear life, water resistance, parts maybe tempered altered induction hardening to adjust hardness levels as desired and having minimal distortion
