The PVD process is a type of a coating, while Ion Nitriding is a diffusion process - adding nitrogen inside the crystal structure of the material.

Мы работаем со всем миром, и в нашем программном обеспечении много разных языков.

Hello, please ask us in official email. You can find the address on our website - ionitech.com

Thank you, Jose! Merry Christmas and warm holidays to you and your family as well!

No, it is not possible to reverse it with the same equipment. To remove the diffused nitrogen you will need much higher temperatures.

@@ionitechltd Do you guys make equipment to achieve this. Also can you elaborate on the process one would use to remove the diffused nitrogen. We currently have a ION-100i model we are using to nitride H13 Tool Steel.

@@charlescross1727 can I ask you to write to us on our email - please find it here - www.ionitech.com/contact-us.html on the right, next to the contact form. (I don't want to put the email directly in the comments here).

The furnace can work with either NH3 or N2 and H2. Currently, this process in the video is working with NH3, and the screen reports it like that.

@Jayceon Azariah I don't Instagram.

Plasma Nitriding is the last treatment. When you take the parts out of the chamber, they are ready to use. There will be no dimensional changes to the crankshaft.

@@ionitechltd Thank you for the response!

@@brys555 you are welcome!

Depends on which steel grade and on the process parameters. You can see some of the most common results as surface hardness and diffusion depth for some steel grades here - www.ionitech.com/plasma-nitriding/solutions-and-results.html

Can you specify what do you mean by thermal properties of the material is it thermal conductivity of the material? Or do you mean if there are phase changes of the material after nitriding?

@@ionitechltd Thermal conductivity

@@tamilnationalist6950 We haven't precisely made research on this topic, but the thermal conductivity shouldn't be affected.

It is just plain carbon steel for covering the threads. :)

Dear Mr. Gupta, please go to our website (in the description of the video) and please write us an email.

The working volume of this specific furnace is diameter 1000 mm and height 1100 mm. (It is up for sale on our Second-Hand equipment page - www.ionitech.com/products/ionitech-second-hand-equipment.html). The furnaces Ionitech's manufactures are very different in size and power - from smaller ones to a lot bigger - depending on the client's requirements.

Dear Sandip, Can you please make an inquiry to the email address given on our website - www.ionitech.com, and we will give you a price.

There are 2 ways of masking surfaces in Plasma Nitriding. The first one is by special masking paints. And the second way is with mechanical masking to cover the surface that you wish to protect from nitriding. About the steel grade for the masking - there is no need for a special steel or even the steel grade of the masked part, a common steel grade can be used. The masking part achieves the heat of the part, so no special requirements for thickness. And about tightness - a consideration should be not to leave small gaps where plasma can get inside and overheat the place.

Nitriding is a type of heat treatment that incorporates nitrogen into the crystal structure of the metal or alloy, through diffusion, and this way enhances the properties such as surface hardness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance and fatigue life. You could find more about the plasma nitriding process on our website - www.ionitech.com/

Great....if our subtract is glass ?what is the nitriding process?

Yes, only two small lines remain untreated (where the part was standing on the rail). Everything that is covered remains untreated, as the threads are covered in this example.

Is it necessary for the material to be in contact with the rail?

In this case we used the rail because it has the least surface touching the part. The parts need to be touching by some way the cathode (plate) and that way they also become cathode.

We are a Bulgarian company. The technology, both Pulse Plasma generator and Computer Controller are developed by us. Just this Controller is programed to work in Russian language.

Don't be shy about your Russian roots.

PVD of arc discharge technique is Russian invention, but they could not commercialize the technology .

The PC-Panel gives you all of the real-time parameters and it is saving them in the graph which you could look at anytime during the process. If you are not in front of the furnace during the process and there is an alarm with the process the installation will note you through email/sms.

Our furnaces create a graph of the process, where you could see Time, Temperature, Gases, Pressure, Current, Voltage. You could see it in our second video - kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpDNpWxpr9eHaJI

Thanks

Hello! For this type of steel it would be better to do plasma nitrocarburising it will increase the surface hardness and the wear resistance. Our equipment can do both plasma nitriding and plasma nitrocarburising.

induction hardening

Hello! Depending on the parts' requirments the thread could be nitrided or not. The covering for these parts is because the thread musn't be nitrided. If the thread must be nitrided the process parameters should be chosen depending on the thread.

+climaxiii This installation is heating the parts only with plasma energy

cj spicey Plasma nitriding is a process carried out in pulse glowing discharge and increaces the hardness and wear resistence of the nitrided steels. Plasma Nitriding is the modern way of nitriding and it surpasses greatly gas nitriding and QPQ with many advantages including: lower temperature and time of the process, no deformations and no need for post-process mechanical treatment, and it is eco-friendly unlike gas nitriding and QPQ. Depending of the steel, the hardness achieved by plasma nitriding could be greater than the hardness achieved by chrome plating.

+EABOY2600 The process of plasma nitriding is far easier and eco-friendly than the salt bath process. It is easier to achieve better results, how much better depends on the steel. :) We haven't done gun barrels but it is possible to do. We nitride stainless steel almost all the time. Depending on the process it could maintain it's colour or if we add post-oxidation the steel could be made black in colour. Also depending on the process done the steel could have a larger diffusion zone but that will result in loss in corrosion resistance. The reverse could also be done - maintaining the corrosion resistance and smaller diffusion zone but creating a surface hardness of about 1300 - 1500 HV (we measure in Vickers but it is about 75 and above HRC) You can contant us for more information on our email: [email protected]

That's a sweeping statement. Ion (plasma) nitriding has its advantages but cannot replace controlled gas nitriding ("Nitreg" process") when parts have a complex geometry. Besides, temperature uniformity and measurement in the chamber is much more difficult.

123kkambiz We are preparing a second video at the moment :) We have more than 40 years of experience and we found the best ways to treat the parts in our equipment. The plasma depends on controlling the temperature, the pressure, the gas ratio and other factors, and in this specific process there is no need for a second "sandwich" for the upper parts, and we still achieve the same results on both rows.

Thanks for clarification, ad expanatin, I used to do the same job in India with less controlable power supply, and we used to sandwitch the components . I think the controlable pulsed power supply is very essential component for successful operation of the process aon with pressure and gas ratios and temperature. Thank you very much for your reply , looking forward to see your next videos.
