Pressure and Temperature
The Heat Isostatic Pressure (H.I.P.) is a manufacturing process that involves the simultaneous application of temperature and isostatic pressure that in our case may go up to 2000ºC and 2000 bar.
The main purposes for the use of the H.I.P. technology are:
- consolidate metallic and ceramic powders to give full density
- difussion bonding of materials
- elimination of microporosity by thermo-creep or plastic deformation
Grupo Hedisa has high technology HIP equipments and a wide and long time experience in the development and control of the H.I.P. process. These are points of difference over our competitors and allow us to offer products with the highest quality as well as fast and innovative solutions to our customers.
