Advanced Decarb Furnaces – Precision Engineering for High-Performance Steel
Advanced Decarb Furnaces – Precision Engineering for High-Performance Steel
At Technotherma India Pvt. Ltd., we specialize in designing Decarb Furnaces engineered for stamping manufacturers, wire drawing plants, and specialty steel producers who demand surface precision and metallurgical consistency.
🔬 What is Decarburization and Why Does It Matter?
Decarburization is the controlled reduction of carbon content on the steel surface during heat treatment. This process eliminates unwanted surface carbides and improves ductility, machinability, and coating adhesion.
Industries such as automotive stamping, high-tensile wire production, and tool steels rely on decarburization to achieve a defect-free, scale-free finish essential for product reliability.
