Thermi-Bugey

THERMI-BUGEY makes its expertise available to plastic injection molders, toolmakers and precision mechanics.

THERMI-BUGEY, a partner for molding mechanics

Located near Oyonnax, in the heart of Plastics Valley, THERMI-BUGEY was created in 1987 to meet the industrial requirements of moldmakers, toolmakers and precision mechanics .

The quality, reliability and speed of our services are ensured by a competent, available and motivated technical team, and by high-tech equipment.

THERMI-BUGEY has all the technologies required for the mechanical engineering market: vacuum treatment, nitriding, PVD and DLC coatings. Bring together all heat treatment solutions from a single source, with vacuum treatment, low-pressure nitriding and vacuum deposition technologies (synergy with THERMI-PLATIN).

All equipment is linked by a supervision network, enabling continuous data acquisition and remote interrogation.

For local customers in the Oyonnax area, we have our own shuttle service to handle the transport ourselves and relieve our customers of the administrative burden.

What are the advantages of thermochemical nitrogen diffusion treatment?

The best-known thermochemical nitrogen diffusion treatment is nitriding. By promoting the formation of nitrides on the surface of metal parts, this process considerably enhances their resistance to wear and fatigue. This type of method offers numerous advantages, and is suitable for the vast majority of steels, even [...].

Which metals can be treated in a controlled atmosphere?

A heat treatment operation takes place in three stages, each of which involves different parameters, notably the duration of each stage, the temperature applied and the ambient atmosphere. When in contact with certain materials, the presence of a gas can trigger a reaction that modifies the chemical and physical characteristics of the parts placed in the heat treatment furnace.

What are the different types of alloys?

Alloys are composed of several chemical elements, of metallic or non-metallic origin. They often have improved properties compared to pure metals, such as greater mechanical strength or resistance to corrosion. Often made from iron, copper, nickel, titanium or aluminum, they are materials in their own right, with improved mechanical strength and resistance to corrosion.

What is induction annealing?

Annealing is one of the best-known heat treatments for metals. Induction, on the other hand, is a heating method based on the diffusion of an electromagnetic current transmitted by an inductor to the surface of parts. The combination of these two technologies is ideal for applying a localized annealing treatment to metal parts.
