Heat Treatment

Eco Friendly Plasma Nitriding Process

Conventional nitriding is potentially very hazardous to environment due to use of poisonous chemicals like cyanides and ammonia whereas plasma nitriding process uses non toxic & precisely controlled gas mixtures. Plasma nitriding process is hence recommended as an alternative, environmentally benign surface treatment process. A plasma nitriding system developed by FCIPT, a division of IPR with support of DST & GUJCOST is installed at IGTR Ahmedabad. The Facility is available for use of industries at Indo German Tool Room, Vatva, Ahmedabad.
