Salt baths increase metallurgist’s level of flexibility in how they conduct the process of heat treating steel. With other quenching media, metals of varying shape or hardness can display a tendency to warp or twist during the process. This can result in cracked parts or parts otherwise unable to perform their intended function. But thanks to salt baths, parts can be suspended during quenching, reducing the chance for part distortion that exists with other methods.

Continuous heat treating furnaces are efficient at treating large volumes of parts under the same conditions for a given time. Because changing variables such as times, temperatures and atmosphere can be difficult and expensive with continuous heat treating furnaces, they excel especially in situations where a large number of similar components require similar treatment. Economical and uniform, this piece of equipment is ideal for processing small to medium-sized parts for a uniform time at the same temperature, atmosphere and quench settings.
