Thermal Processing focuses on heat-treating technologies for gear manufacturers. Produced by Media Solutions, Inc.—publishers of Gear Solutions and Wind Systems magazines—the launch of Thermal Processing is in direct response to requests by readers for more information on heat-treating gears. Twice annually experts from both industry and academia will share their expertise with you, discussing the
latest developments in equipment design as well as the processes so central to the finishing and hardening of gears. Articles will address topics such as carburizing, annealing, flame hardening, austenitizing, austempering, case hardening, cyaniding, carbonitriding, stress relieving, martempering, and even cryogenic and quenching techniques. Metallurgists will discuss the latest research into the metals and alloys used in manufacturing gears, particularly their reaction to the various heat-treating processes to which they are exposed. Engineers will describe cutting-edge furnace designs leading to greater productivity, dependability, and repeatability. Robotics, quality assurance, part measurement, and machine vision systems will also be explored. Excellent exposure is guaranteed for all contributors, with 10,000 print copies—and an approximately additional 8,000 digital versions—of each issue being distributed around the country, and the world. As experienced trade publishers it is our mission to link OEMs and those providing peripheral services and devices with end users, creating a network of resources for the benefit of gear manufacturing and related industries.
