The automotive heat treat market is diverse, large, and continually growing. Heat treating demands are evolving with the advent of electric cars, but heat treatment of conventional automotive parts remains strong. Parts that are heat treated include: power transmission gears, braking systems, engine components, fasteners and stampings. These parts are made from a variety of heat treatable materials, including mild steel, aluminum, magnesium, and high strength and low alloy steels. The components are made from materials produced by powder metallurgy and wrought metal, including castings and forgings. Processes vary widely, a few examples being annealing, brazing (e.g., processing automotive heat exchangers), case hardening (e.g., carburizing, carbonitriding, ferritic and austenitic nitrocarburizing, nitriding), hardening (e.g., through hardening, selective surface hardening), normalizing, sintering, and solution heat treating (e.g., aluminum).
