STRAIGHTENING WITH REESE:

Distortion and changes to geometry are unavoidable in heat treatment. Nevertheless, HÄRTEREI REESE offers its customers a wide range of methods, including e.g. plasma nitriding, gas nitriding, nitrocarburising, vacuum hardening, etc., that reduce this hardening distortion to a minimum. These also include the knowhow needed to determine and counteract changes of this kind - and hence eliminate extensive rework.

Straightening has also therefore evolved into a particularly important service. Our precision presses can generate forces up to 8000 kN for straightening both small workpieces and large components up to 10 m in length within a precision of ±0.1 mm.
