Nitrex, Quebec, announced the receipt of a multi-million-dollar contract to provide a turnkey automated nitrocarburizing installation exclusively designed for the production of brake components for electric passenger vehicles.
Under the contract, Nitrex will design, manufacture, commission, and test two cutting-edge continuous-line furnaces capable of processing millions of brake parts annually. The NXL furnace series, with its automation capabilities and continuous flow-through design, precisely meets the supplier’s requirements for improved process efficiency and optimized production.
In addition to the advanced furnace design, Nitreg®-C and ONC® technologies are integral to this order. This ferritic nitrocarburizing process with post-oxidation improves metal corrosion resistance and effectively reduces rust formation. It is the right solution for staying ahead of changing industry standards and achieving lower non-effluent emissions associated with electric vehicle braking systems.
The turnkey installation, combined with Nitrex’s skilled R&D team, who craft and develop process recipes for optimal results, further distinguishes the company. Through its holistic approach, Nitrex delivers solutions that set it apart in the industry and reinforce the supplier’s choice to partner on this transformative project.
