Advanced Heat Treat Corp. (AHT), a recognized leader in heat treat services and metallurgical solutions, announced building expansions at their Monroe, Michigan and Waterloo, Iowa locations. The extra space will enable AHT to add more equipment and services. The Michigan AHT location is expanding their pit. The new space will allow for two additional nitriding units which are larger in size.

AHT Burton, referred to by the street name as there are two locations in Waterloo, Iowa, is adding additional square footage onto their building. The expansion will allow for additional equipment and services to be added. The expansion is expected to be complete mid-summer. While the expansions are the first for the Michigan and Burton facilities since 2006 and 2007, respectively, AHT recently doubled the shop floor at their corporate headquarters located in Waterloo, Iowa this past February.

AHT President Mike Woods commented, “We’re very excited about the growth AHT has seen over the past few years. Because of this, we felt it was necessary to expand our facilities and invest in additional equipment to better serve our customers and capture more of the market.” Last month, AHT also added two new induction units at the Burton Ave location, providing even better turnaround times and expanding capacity for large parts.

AHT has four locations: two in Waterloo, Iowa; one in Monroe, Michigan; and a fourth in Cullman, Alabama. Between the four locations, they offer over 20 surface treatments including gas and ion nitriding, induction hardening, carburizing, carbonitriding and more.  Woods added, “This past year has been exciting. We thank everyone involved and look forward to another great year.” For more information about Advanced Heat Treat Corp. or its services, please visit www.ahtcorp.com or call 319-232-5221.
