Quench2Fit™

Quench2Fit is a proprietary suite of heat treating metallurgy technologies that control part distortion by making thermal expansion, thermal shrinkage and phase change expansion uniform and predictable on a “granular” level during processing. The result is that the desired physical properties are achieved on a consistent basis, saving millions of dollars in post-heat treating processes. Q2F also eliminates the hazards of batch oil quenching and facilitates “in the cell” heat treatments.

The Quench2Fit process is driven by Finite Element Analysis software, a modeling tool that predicts part distortion so the designer can plan for it. The result is an overall lower cost of manufacture.
