Carburizing in “low pressure” is performed optimally in vacuum furnaces.
It is a technology that allows you to achieve products with bright surface with no intergranular oxidation and low deformations thanks to the cooling with pressurised gas.
High levels of uniformity and reproducibility of treatment are obtained thanks to a careful management of the carburizing process parameters (achieved vacuum control, composition of the carburizing gas mixture, variation of pressure and temperature in the carburizing phases, temperature in the austenitizing phase and nitrogen pressure during hardening).
