Hommel + Keller Group invests in new technology

Fully automated inert gas hardening line goes on stream

The Hommel + Keller Group launches their fourth business division trading under the name of H+K Carbotec GmbH.

One year after the depression Hommel + Keller Group continues its way of economic growth. An additional building with a total area of 1000 m², amplifying the headquarter in Aldingen, has now been completed. The recent founded subsidiary H+K Carbotec GmbH is starting up the heat treatment of inert gas hardening in its new premises.

During the economic and financial depression the investment in a fully automated inert gas hardening line had to be put on hold. But in spring 2010 we could realize the foundation of our new business division, the H+K Carbotec GmbH. The subsequent extension of the company premises set the course for the future: Another step towards a full-range provider of all heat treatment procedure is done.

We can now offer the established hardening with inert gas, in addition to the vacuum technology, nitriding technology and galvanic treatments. The new facilities do also allow additional treatments such as nitrocarburising as well as hardening and tempering with inert gas.

This investment makes the Hommel + Keller Group an even more attractive business partner as one-stop supplier of comprehensive services and benefits.
