Some applications for
heat treatments
Heat treatments of
railway parts
HACER’s thermal process has been validated by an equipment manufacturer, and we are proud to ensure the treatment of tapered rollers and components of the bearings for the TGV of the future.
Heat treatments of
automotive parts
For one of our bearing manufacturer customers, we developed a heat treatment allowing to significantly increase the service life of gearbox bearings through a co-development project.
Heat treatments of mountain sports parts
HACER specialises in the heat treatment of aluminium, and provides mechanical properties to increase durability on your ski binding parts (ski touring or other), heel levers, etc.
For mountaineering carabiners, the parts that HACER treats as part of a global service package undergo a heat treatment for bulk hardening (7075 T73), as well as a sulphuric anodic oxidation (OAS).
Heat treatments of electric bike parts
In a growing market for standard bicycles or EABs (Electrically Assisted Bikes), it was necessary to solve the problem of a broken cold heading pedal spindle.
HACER ensures the heat treatment on pedal spindles (sometimes instrumented), by specific hardening and tempering, thus ensuring improved reliability and robustness over time.
