Nitrex, Quebec, announced a collaboration with Beymetal Alüminyum, a leading player in the aluminum extrusion industry based in Türkiye, to modernize their nitriding capabilities.
In its commitment to excellence and pursuit of progress, Beymetal partnered with Nitrex to improve efficiency and scalability in their in-house nitriding operations. The installation of a Nitrex batch-type nitriding/nitrocarburizing furnace has unlocked new possibilities in process efficiency and production capacity for Beymetal.
The NX-1015 furnace model, with a 2,000 kg (4,400 lb.) capacity, is equipped with Nitreg® controlled nitriding and Nitreg®-C controlled nitrocarburizing technologies. These are specifically tailored for treating extrusion dies for aluminum profiles used in architectural applications. This advanced system ensures precise control over uniform case depths and nitride/nitrocarburizing layer formation, enhancing the mechanical properties of the extrusion dies. The result is a longer service life and increased output per die, ultimately lowering overall tooling costs for Beymetal. Additionally, the new installation contributes to more efficient use of production media and reduces electricity consumption.
“This Nitrex system is the first of its kind in Izmir and adds to our impressive record of over 30 installations across Türkiye. When discussing our partnership with Beymetal, it wasn’t solely about implementing a turnkey system but rather about fostering a relationship founded on trust and shared goals. Through a deep understanding of our customer’s needs, Nitrex delivered a solution tailored to their unique aspirations while also ensuring efficiency and sustainability,” noted Utku Inan, Nitrex sales representative in Türkiye.
