Heat Treat Furnaces

Heat treating (or heat treatment) broadly refers to a group of thermal processes in industrial and metalworking applications used to intentionally alter the physical and sometimes chemical properties of a material (usually a metal).  These physical and chemical property alterations typically come in the form of hardening or softening of a material via heating in a high-temperature furnace or chilling at extreme temperatures.  Heat treating occurs at temperatures above 1,000° F, and often in excess of 1,700° F.

Desired workpiece physical and chemical properties are achieved through heat treatment techniques such as annealing, case hardening, precipitation hardening, tempering, normalizing, and quenching.  Lindberg/MPH designs and manufactures thermal processing and high temperature furnaces that incorporate all these heat treatment techniques, which are known for their heating uniformity, low maintenance needs, and cost-effectiveness.

With over 100 years of experience in the heat treat industry, Lindberg/MPH delivers industrial heat treat furnaces that combine proven furnace design expertise with custom engineering capabilities to meet the unique requirements of a wide range of industries. Our heat treat systems are built with premium materials and precision craftsmanship to ensure uniform heating, energy efficiency, and long service life across demanding applications.
