"Uni-Max-Case" is a process developed at Penna-Flame for rolls. The work piece is rotated while the heating unit scans horizontally or vertically. "Uni-Max-Case" utilizes infrared measurement of surface temperature and subsequent computer control to maximize surface hardness and case depth during the flame hardening process.

There are certain round or semi-round iron and steel parts that are "spin" flame hardened such as single flanged wheels and compound gears. Spin hardening permits selective areas of such parts to be heated and quenched uniformly without detrimental soft zones.
