Heat Treatment - Metallurgy and Processes

Date : 10 to 11 February, 2026

Venue : IMTMA Technology Centre, Bengaluru

LAST DATE FOR REGISTRATION 03 February 2026

INTRODUCTION

Heat Treatment is a core manufacturing process carried out under controlled application of temperature and atmosphere to optimize certain physical and mechanical properties of metals/alloys. Heat treatment is an enabling process that can improve product performance by increasing its strength or other desirable characteristics such as machinability, formability, ductility, etc. The process of heat treatment has a major bearing on the quality of the end product and finds a wide application in many industries such as Automobile & Auto Components, Dies & Mould, Machine Tools, Aerospace, General Engineering and so on.

Keeping this in view, Indian Machine Tool Manufacturers' Association (IMTMA) is organising a 2 day programme on "Heat Treatment-Metallurgy and processes"

FOCUS AREAS		KEY TAKE AWAYS
Fundamentals & Purpose Basic Heat treatment processes (Annealing, Normalising, Hardening, Quenching, Tempering, Case Carburising & hardening, Case Nitriding, Sub?zero treatment, Induction Hardening) Advanced techniques (Vacuum hardening, Toughtriding) Process problems and solutions Techniques of distortion control Successful drawing requirements General Quality plan of H/T for acceptance / rejection Industry practices Understanding of case depth determination (Carburising, Nitriding & Induction hardening particularly in case of components like gear, Shafts Plane & spline) Common failures and remedies		After undergoing the programme, the participants will be able to - Learn about various heat treatment methods and specific applications of each process Develop Quality plan for critical heat treated components Understand how to calculate and control case depth in surface hardening Understand common problems encountered in heat treatment and remedies
