Heat Treatment of Gears: A Practical Guide for Engineers
Chapter 7: Modern Nitriding Processes

Published:2000
Abstract
Several limitations in achieving optimal gear performance with conventional nitriding have led researchers to work on a variety of novel and improved nitriding processes. Of these, ion/plasma nitriding offers some promising results, which are reviewed in this chapter. The chapter concludes with a case history describing the application of ion nitriding to an internal ring gear of an epicyclic gearbox.
