Powertrain System
Induction Hardening Machine for Powertrain System
The transmission system has the most parts that need induction heat treatment, such as hub bearings, shafts, torsion bars and so on. All these parts share a common characteristic, that is, using bearing steel to improve wear resistance. The bearing steel must go through appropriate heat treatment to achieve these requirements. Heat treatment process of hub bearings is undergoing changes worldwide.
We own very mature technologies and large solution reserves. We are especially adapted to mass production of rotary multi-station automated machines to meet the needs of customers worldwide. We have a lot of induction heating solutions for transmission and drive components. If you want to know more, please contact us

Universal joint
It is necessary for the CVJ (Constant Velocity Joint) to have high fatigue strength and impact strength in use. In order to ensure the strength and wear resistance, the joint needs induction hardening treatment. But its structure affects its hardenability. With superior design and manufacture capabilities, we launched a manual quenching machine for such parts. The use of profiling heating coil can improve the hardened layer depth, ensuring overall quenching quality.

Semi-shaft
The semi-shaft is one of the main transmission parts of the drive axle. It has to withstand great bending moment and impact. We have an automatic machine specially designed for hardening semi-shafts. After the treatment, the semi-shaft will have better torsional and flexural resistance, anti-fatigue performance, and sufficient toughness. The life of the shaft will also be extended. The loading and unloading are fully automatic, suitable for mass production. The stepping transmission of workpiece also works in high efficiency.
