“ To clarify our business , we primarily operate as a service provider . We do not engage in designing and producing parts ; that responsibility lies with our customers . Our job is to enhance those parts , making them better , and suitable for the end use of the part . When a customer produces a part , the initial microstructure of the part is often not uniform , which can lead to issues like breakage . In other cases , a customer may want a part hardened or softened . A part may have porosity issues and require densification . The list goes on ; our services include anything from HIP to aluminum processing ( such as solution and aging ), austempering , ferrous metal processing ( such as normalizing , oil quenching , temper annealing ), coatings , and nitriding ( including ion , plasma and gas nitriding ), as well as ferritic nitrocarburizing . We also offer vacuum brazing to support prime and tiered suppliers across a variety of industries . We are a specialty metal processor , optimizing and enhancing the performance of our customers ’ parts and ensuring that they meet higher standards and provide superior functionality .
