Casting the metal is only the beginning; Heat Treatment is where the material earns its strength. This critical phase is essential for transforming the "as-cast" structure into a high-performance component ready for rigorous industrial service.

At Tabarestan Steel Foundry (TSF), we view heat treatment as a precise science. It is the mechanism by which we:

• Enhance Mechanical Properties: Tuning the hardness, tensile strength, and ductility to meet exact specifications.
• Refine Microstructure: Eliminating segregation defects and homogenizing the grain structure.
• Relieve Stresses: Removing internal residual stresses caused by the casting solidification process to prevent future warping or cracking.
• Maximize Durability: Significantly improving toughness and wear resistance for components destined for demanding applications.

Unmatched Capacity: 11 Furnaces, Infinite Flexibility

To support our diverse manufacturing portfolio, TSF has invested in one of the most comprehensive heat treatment workshops in the region. We are equipped with a total of 11 specialized furnaces, creating an operational ecosystem that blends massive capacity with agile flexibility.

The Hardware Advantage:

• Versatile Sizing: Our infrastructure ranges from compact precision units measuring 1.5 × 1.5 meters to massive, large-scale industrial chambers measuring 6 × 7 meters.
• Load Capacity: We can handle distinct load weights ranging from 1 ton for smaller batches up to 20 tons for heavy industrial castings.

Operational Efficiency: This wide variety in furnace size and load capacity is a strategic asset. It allows us to optimize production scheduling—processing small orders without waiting for large furnaces to fill, and handling massive parts without bottlenecks. The result is significantly minimized delivery times and the ability to handle projects of any scale with efficiency.

Comprehensive Process Capabilities

We perform a full spectrum of thermal cycles, tailoring the "recipe" to the specific chemical composition of the alloy. Our process portfolio includes:

• Annealing: To soften materials for machining and refine grain structure.
• Normalizing: To achieve a uniform and fine-grained microstructure.
• Quenching: We utilize three distinct quenching media—Air, Oil, and Water—allowing us to control cooling rates precisely for different hardenability requirements.

Material Expertise: These treatments are expertly applied across our full material range, including:

• Carbon and Low-Alloy Steels
• Manganese Steels (Solution Annealing)
• High-Chromium Steels and cast irons

Precision Control and Digital Traceability

In modern metallurgy, consistency is key. Our furnaces are not just heated chambers; they are integrated systems combining precision hardware with intelligent software.

• Advanced Hardware: We utilize high-accuracy thermocouples, advanced thermal controllers, and digital data recorders to monitor every second of the cycle.
• Intelligent Software: Our systems are driven by PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) software. This automation guarantees that every heat treatment cycle is executed with the highest level of repeatability.

The TSF Promise: This integration ensures total control and documentation. We can prove that the component delivered today has the exact same uniform mechanical properties as the one delivered a year ago, providing our customers with absolute reliability.
