The automotive and heavy vehicle industry demands high productivity, consistent quality, and exceptional mechanical performance.
From engine components to transmission elements and chassis parts, manufacturers must achieve tight dimensional tolerances, excellent wear resistance, and stable metallurgical properties — all at high production volumes.
With more than 35 years of experience in industrial furnace design, Codere SA delivers flexible, robust, and highly repeatable heat treatment systems tailored to automotive, utility vehicle, and Agricultural machinery manufacturers, ensuring compliance with standards such as CQI-9 and IATF 16949.
Automotive Industry Challenges
Automotive manufacturers face several critical requirements:
- High-volume production with strict cost control
- Repeatable metallurgical results
- Low distortion and precise quenching conditions
- Full traceability and documentation
- Ability to treat steels, alloy steels, and lightweight materials like aluminium
Codere systems deliver robust, stable, and automated solutions for all powertrain and structural components.
System 250
The System 250 integrates all major heat treatment steps into one compact and automated line — carburizing, hardening, quenching, tempering, washing, and more — ensuring maximum productivity, process stability, and repeatability.
System 120
For aluminium components used in engines and structural assemblies, the System 120 provides highly controlled solution treatment and aging, ensuring high strength and low distortion.
CRG6Ni - Nitriding furnace
Codere’s CRG6Ni vertical nitriding furnaces are designed for precise surface hardening of steel components, supporting both standalone operation and integration into automated heat-treatment lines.
They combine a gas-tight vertical retort, controlled gas circulation, and advanced atmosphere regulation to ensure uniform nitriding, nitrocarburising, and post-oxidation with high process stability and repeatable metallurgical results.
HTView - supervision software
HTView offers full digital traceability for all automotive heat treatment cycles, including:
- Real-time monitoring
- Data recording
- Recipe management
- Alarms and audit support
HTView ensures compliance with CQI-9 and guarantees repeatable production quality.
