Surface Hardening Procedures for Steels

On Demand This webinar describes and illustrates surface hardening procedures for a wide variety of steels with multiple examples to show how these procedures alter the microstructure and surface hardness. Tempering must be performed on surface hardened steels, but generally the temperatures used are rather low causing little loss of hardness.

IR Temperature Measurement for Metals Made Simple

Choosing and deploying the right sensor for Infrared temperature measurements on metal surfaces can be a complicated exercise. Most suppliers offer dozens of sensor options and some offer a range of IR cameras that could also be considered. It is easy to spend several thousand dollars on a sensor that does not measure accurately on a metal surface, but you can avoid this fate if you better understand four key technical issues.

Furnace Safety for the New Decade: NFPA 86 Yesterday to Tomorrow

This webinar begins with a brief trip down memory lane to marvel at early twentieth-century furnace technologies, commences with a look at the most recent changes made to the 2019 Edition of NFPA’s Ovens & Furnaces Standard, and ends with a crystal ball look at technologies that may unfold in the decade ahead.
