Cryogenic Tempering Before and AfterGlobal Engineered Products offers cryogenic processing services for ferous and non-ferous metals, as well as other composites including some plastics and various other materials.

Cryogenic processing affects the material at the atomic level, resulting in a part that is actually better than new - one that will perform more efficiently and last longer.

Cryogenics can be used to extend tool fatigue life and wear resistance, improve firearm accuracy and to enhance the performance of metal equipment that experiences friction and abrasive wear, just to name a few.
Applications for Cryogenic treatment include pumping, drilling for oil and mining, heavy machining and abrasive tooling and repeated pounding.
Deep Cryogenic Tempering is done using an advanced, specially developed computer controlled processing system for reliably treating materials using the vapours extracted from liquid nitrogen. Cryogenic Tempering Before and After

Our customers commonly treat: pumps, mining and oil drill bits, end mills, punch dies, forging dies, gears, hobs, bearings, shear blades, blocks, crankshafts, cams as well as various other parts and tools.

Manufacturers can improve performance and increase the life of metal tools and parts with cryogenic processing at 300° below.

Other deep-freeze methods process parts to only -120° F!

Our Cryo-Processing takes metals beyond deep-freeze to cryogenic levels. This significantly lengthens and enhances performance of metal tools and parts. Cryo-Processing treatment exceeds other heating and freezing methods by 200 to 400 percent.

Cryo-Processing creates more wear resistance and more uniform molecular structure. The result is a larger contact surface area that reduces friction, heat and wear. The process transforms almost all soft retained austenite to hard martensite. It forms microfine carbide fillers to enhance large carbide structures.
