Laser Hardening

Any type of ferrous metal such as steel or cast iron which could be hardened by traditional methods like flame or induction hardening, can be hardened with a Laser. Laser Hardening is more versatile than flame hardening or induction hardening.

    Laser Heat Treating

    Heat treating and hardening a surface with a laser is simple. Point the laser, heat the surface and let it cool. HighLight D-Series laser technology is ideal for performing laser-transformation hardening in a manufacturing environment because of the: superior heat treat characteristics, flexibility of the process, compatibility with a lean manufacturing environment, fast cycle time for processing the parts. ...

    Mobile Laser Hardening

    Making the hardening process mobile gives you the chance to take the hardening to any mould in the production line so that it doesn't need to be taken out of workflow and can be back producing quickly. If down time costs money then the amount you can save with this technology is significant....
