Induction hardening of metal #zaferyildiz | Zafer Yıldız

Induction surface hardening is a manufacturing process that rapidly heats only the outer layer of a steel part using an electromagnetic field. The energy concentrates at the surface while the interior remains relatively cool which allows the material to be selectively hardened without affecting the entire component. This precise heating happens in seconds and requires no direct contact with the metal. Immediately after heating the surface is quenched with water or a polymer spray which locks the
