What’s Heat Treatment?
Heat Treatment is a controlled process of heating and cooling solid materials to alter their physical and mechanical properties, say process of enhancing the hardness, ductility and fatigue resistance, wear resistance or machinability without changing the product’s shape. Elevate the quality of your project today!
Benefits of Heat Treatment
Without heat treatment, some metal parts become too brittle. Heat treatment strengthens metals like steel and aluminum, which are widely used in aircraft, cars, and computers to ensure safety and performance.
It mainly improves shear strength, tensile strength, and toughness. Heat‑treated metals are stronger and more durable, reducing the need for frequent replacement of expensive parts.
Proper heat treatment also relieves internal stress, making metals easier to weld or machine. Key benefits include:
Increased strength with good ductility
Better wear resistance
Stress relief for easier machining/welding
Reduced brittleness
Improved electrical and magnetic properties
Heat Treatment Type
Heat to an appropriate temperature, keep warm, and slowly cool to soften the material, eliminate internal stress, homogenize chemical composition and structure, and prepare for subsequent processing or heat treatment.
Typical Applications: Pre treatment of forgings, castings, and welded parts, followed by re softening after cold work hardening.
Heat to austenitization temperature, keep warm, and cool in air.
Improvement of low-carbon steel enhances its machinability.
To obtain a martensitic or bainitic structure with high hardness and wear resistance, heat it above the critical temperature, hold it for a while, and then cool it quickly.
Typical Applications: All parts that require high hardness, such as cutting tools, molds, bearings, gears, etc
The process of obtaining high hardness on the surface of the work piece.
Surface quenching is to obtain a deeper hardened layer to withstand high contact stress or rolling loads, such as the tooth surface of gears.
The process of obtaining high hardness on the surface of the work piece.
Chemical heat treatment requires a surface that is extremely hard, while the core has high toughness to withstand impact loads, such as automotive transmission gears.

FAQs About Our NPI Solutions Services
Why Tooling?
Tooling is the foundation of high-volume, repeatable manufacturing. Tooling turns a slow, manual process into a fast, automated, high-volume production system. If you need mass production, you must be choose tooling and molding production.
What kind of equipment do you use?
The molding workshop includes EDM, wire EDM, 50+CNC machining center, 50+injection machines ranging from 80 to 1000 tons, ect to meet different production requirements. Request equipment list, contact our team: ashely@rpdmfg.com.
Do you support export mold or production?
Yes, exactly. We support both. You can either for use at your own facility or leave it with us for long-term molding production.
What is your quality control system?
We operate under a rigorous Quality Management System (QMS) aligned with ISO standards. Our 5 Steps QC process is including IQC (Incoming Quality Control) , FQC (Final Quality Control) , OQC (Outgoing Quality Control) for routine production.
QE (Quality Engineering) / CAPA (Corrective and Preventive Actions) implemented throughout the entire product lifecycle, especially during the post-sale stage, to drive continuous improvement. Simply speaking 100% inspection before shipment to ensure zero defects.
What kind of quality assurance or warranty do you offer on orders?
One of the reasons engineers purchase from RPD is that we take on all the risks for you. We guarantee you’ll love what you get. Not happy with it? We’ll either redo it or give you a full refund. Your purchase is completely risk-free.
Why injection tooling is so expensive?
Material – Hardened steel (costly but durable for high volume)
Complexity – CNC, EDM, polishing; multi-cavity, undercuts add cost
Precision – Tight tolerances require advanced equipment & skilled labor
Customization – Every mold is custom-built for a specific part
Engineering – Significant design time for cooling, ejection, and geometry
Which kind of file formats can I send for tooling& production?
We accept STEP, IGES, STL, DWG, DXF, and other common CAD formats.
What Factors will Influence Tooling Design?
1. Part Geometry – Shape, size, and complexity drive mold design. Thin walls, intricate details, and complex geometries require specialized features like additional cooling or advanced gating systems.
2. Material Selection – The plastic type affects cooling rates, shrinkage, and flow. Polypropylene shrinks more; polycarbonate needs higher mold temperatures. Abrasive or corrosive plastics also demand wear-resistant mold materials.
3. Tolerances & Precision – High-precision parts (automotive, medical) require tighter mold tolerances — which complicates design and increases cost.
4. Ejection System – Ejector pins, air blasts, or stripper plates must be carefully integrated to remove parts without damage — affecting both design and cycle time.
5. Gate Design – Gate type and location (direct, pin, edge) control how molten plastic enters the mold, impacting part quality, surface finish, and cycle time.
6. Undercuts & Parting Lines – Undercuts or complex shapes may require side actions or lifters to release the part, increasing mold complexity and cost.
Can we store the mold at your facility for future production orders? Do you provide free maintenance for the mold?
Yes, we offer two key benefits for molds set up at our facility: free storage and free maintenance.
