HT TOOLS - CARBURIZING SIMULATION SOFTWARE

HT-Tools is a simulation software that models and optimizes carburizing processes before implementation, plotting the carbon diffusion and hardness profiles.
The software contains a ‘Materials’ database with the chemical composition of different steels. Depending on the elements of the steel, the software calculates the alloy factor and the carbide limit.
Parts characterized by steel composition, geometry, and specifications may also be entered into the database. Based on the input provided, the carbon profile is calculated for the required case depth.
