Nitrex, Quebec, has delivered a second nitriding system to Qatar Aluminium Extrusion Co. (Qalex). The aluminum profiles manufacturer intended to install an independent nitriding furnace in a second extrusion plant to reduce handling and processing times, as well as the expenses associated with transporting extrusion dies to the factory for nitriding.
“In 2021, Qalex boosted the company’s production capacity with the acquisition of a second factory in Qatar dedicated to aluminum extrusion manufacturing and equipped with two extrusion presses. They knew they couldn’t nitride all dies from both factories in one furnace,” explains Marcin Stokłosa, project manager at Nitrex Poland.
