Aluminum Extrusion
Process control for aluminum extrusion die heat treatment and aging.
Aluminum extrusion operations depend on properly heat treated dies and tooling for consistent profile quality and long die life. UPC-Marathon provides process control solutions for nitriding extrusion dies, aging aluminum billets, and treating mandrels and other tooling used in the extrusion process.
Our nitriding control systems, including the NitroCarb probe and Protherm controllers, help extrusion die heat treaters achieve optimal compound layer properties for maximum die life. Our atmosphere management solutions ensure precise control of nitriding potential for consistent results across every load.
