[Technical Column] What are the differences between hardening, tempering, annealing, and normalizing?
Explaining heat treatment! By using it according to the purpose, it is possible to impart various properties to the products.
In this column, we will provide a detailed explanation of four representative heat treatment methods: "quenching," "tempering," "annealing," and "normalizing," aimed at those who have questions such as, "I want to know how to differentiate between the commonly used heat treatments like quenching, tempering, annealing, and normalizing," or "I want to utilize heat treatment for quality improvement of our products, but what methods would be best?" Each of the four heat treatments uses heat to alter the structure of the steel material, allowing for the differentiation based on the desired properties such as hardness and toughness. We will introduce the characteristics, applications, and temperature patterns of each heat treatment method in detail. *For more detailed information about the column, please refer to the related links.

Company information
The manufacturing process of industrial products in all fields almost always includes a heating process. Due to the various factors such as the material, size, processing volume, temperature, atmospheric gas, and transportation method of the items being processed, heating devices, or thermal treatment furnaces, will have different specifications. Our company has traditionally responded to user expectations with a flexible design and manufacturing system. We have accumulated extensive experience and achievements across various powdered materials, including metal materials, mechanical parts, electronic components made of glass and ceramics, magnetic materials, and battery materials, regardless of the target objects. In recent years, it has become rare for thermal treatment furnaces to serve merely as heating devices; they are often required to have some additional functions. In addition to safety, energy efficiency, and automation, we actively incorporate advanced technologies to address environmental issues and enhance usability, going beyond merely following past technologies, and we will continue to create together with our customers.
