home_puce_colonnes INNOVATION


Distortion control with step quenching (StepGQ)


For components subject to distortion, ECM Technologies has developed StepGQ . StepGQ is a 3-step gas quenching principle, achieved by adjusting the two parameters of ECM Technologies gas quenching: gas pressure and mixing rate. The key innovation is to mark a step – a few seconds pause – during the cooling process, before austenite starts transforming in martensite (Ms point). Temperature is then homogenized within the part: this prevents excessive temperature difference between surface and core, a residual stress factor as steel structure changes...
