A Russian manufacturer of hydraulic cutting tools and rescue and emergency equipment recently extended its range of services by offering commercial heat treatment through its newly created subsidiary, TVN2.
SPRUT expanded its operation with a BMI double chamber vacuum furnace (B64TH for oil and gas quenching) and a second furnace for tempering and low-pressure nitriding (B54RN). This led to the launch of TVN2 to carry out the vacuum technology heat treatments, offering repeatability of results and giving the company control of the manufacturing process. With its own metallurgical laboratory on site, SPRUT, through TVN2, is able to offer hardness and microstructure analyses as additional services.
