The defense sector is one of the most demanding and technologically advanced industries worldwide.
Components used in military and security systems must demonstrate exceptional reliability, durability, and performance under extreme operating conditions, including high mechanical stress, severe temperature variations, and corrosive environments.
With more than 35 years of Swiss engineering expertise, Codere SA delivers heat treatment systems designed to meet the strictest requirements in the defense industry. Our solutions ensure process stability, tight temperature uniformity, advanced traceability, and full compliance with international quality standards.
Defense industry challenges
Defense manufacturers face strict production and quality constraints due to the critical nature of military systems. Their main challenges include:
- Full compliance with AMS2750, NADCAP, EN 9100
- Complete traceability and documentation of all process steps
- Tight temperature uniformity for high-alloy steels, titanium, Inconel, aluminium, and special steels
- Repeatability of heat treatment cycles for consistent metallurgical results
- Controlled quenching with minimal distortion
- High productivity and low downtime to maintain industrial competitiveness
System 250
Codere’s System 250 modular lines integrate bell furnaces for quenching, washing and annealing, designed for semi- or fully-automatic operation.
HTView - supervision software
HTView ensures full process traceability, advanced data recording, recipe management, and remote diagnostic capabilities.
The system supports certification audits (AMS2750, NADCAP) thanks to complete historical data, real-time monitoring, and automatic documentation.
