SURFACING. AUTOMATION. INNOVATION.

Powerful, cost-effective repair and maintenance solutions for the most challenging wear environments.

Hardcarb Technologies has been working relentlessly in the field of wear protection since more than two decades. By focusing on wear problems in a wide spectrum of Industries ranging from ore processing to cement, power, aluminum, dredging, foundry, construction etc, Hardcarb has helped and assisted to solve a great variety of wear problems. This focus also means that Hardcarb has collected more practical wear-related experience than most competitors.

Our founders Dr. Rohit Shah and Dr. Wolfgang Wahl were involved in fighting wear problems since many decades. Originally formed in 1999, Hardcarb has transformed from a company manufacturing only composite wearplates to one manufacturing the entire spectrum of hardfacing materials, composite materials as well as automation equipment. The harsh wear conditions existing in the Indian coal, cement and iron ore Industries have paved way for multiple technological innovations from Hardcarb, most prominent being the development of near-nanostructured hardfacing superalloys, high thickness polyarmourTM technology and brazed hardmetals.

Dr. Rohit Shah with Dr. Wolfgang Wahl

Our quest to fight wear is demonstrated from our diversified anti-wear portfolio, which encompasses a wide array of advanced anti-wear materials, sophisticated processes and intelligent engineering; the most prominent being:

  • Composite wearplates – overlays with linear weave, taper weave, stringer, zig-zag, s-wave, chevron, etc.

  • Composite liteplates – thin wearplates such as 3+3, 4+2, 5+1, etc.

  • Welding consumables – non-slagging stick electrodes, cored wires, tubular electrodes, flexible ropes, bare rods etc.

  • Hybrid cast and forged parts – ready-to-use pre-hardfaced parts.

  • Sintered carbide wear parts – severely wearing parts protected by brazed hardmetals.

  • Automation – Portable in-situ hardfacing kits, sophisticated wire feeders, servo positioners, robotic system integration.
