Heany Industries Inc
Rollers and coatings
Company Overview and History
Heany Industries LLC, established in 1932, offers over 90 years of expertise in wear-resistant innovations. The company is a key provider of performance thermal spray coatings and solid ceramic components, catering to critical sectors like aerospace, transportation, and diverse industrial applications. Heany's commitment to quality is demonstrated through its extensive certifications and a history of developing proprietary materials and patented solutions.
Thermal Spray Coatings
Heany delivers advanced thermal spray coatings, applying over 100 different materials'including metals, carbides, ceramics, and cermets'onto various substrates. Employing technologies such as High Velocity Air Fuel (HVAF), Plasma, High Velocity Oxygen Fuel (HVOF), and Twin Wire Arc, these coatings offer superior wear and corrosion resistance, alongside thermal and electrical insulation to extend equipment life and boost productivity. Specialized offerings include Thermal Barrier Coatings (TBC) for protection against thermal fatigue and high-temperature oxidation, and electrically insulating surfaces. Carbide coatings provide exceptional hardness (Rc 60-69 Rockwell) and can be precision-ground to a 1 μin (Ra) finish. All thermal spray operations utilize 6-axis robots for consistent quality and efficiency.
Ceramic Components and Materials
The company manufactures solid aluminum oxide and zirconium oxide components, offering thousands of standard parts and extensive custom engineering. Heany's proprietary materials, Heanium® (a high-purity alumina oxide) and HZirconia, are specifically engineered for outstanding wear and corrosion resistance in demanding environments. These ceramics are vital for products such as bellmouth bushings, buncher guides, pigtails, eyelets, rods, rollers, and wire depressors, primarily serving the wire/cable and textile manufacturing industries. Heany's comprehensive capabilities include technical and industrial ceramics, ceramic extrusion, injection molding, isostatic pressing, and precision machining.
Quality Assurance and Innovation
Heany operates under a stringent quality system, evidenced by its Nadcap accreditations for Aerospace Quality Systems (AC7004), Thermal Spray Coatings (AC7109/1), and Coatings Evaluation Laboratory (AC7109/5). The company is an approved supplier to GE Aviation and Parker Aerospace, holding specific GE Aviation Coating Approvals. An in-house, GE Certified Metallographic Laboratory ensures rigorous testing, daily certification, and complete traceability. Heany's investment in R&D has yielded patented innovations, such as a Telecom Fuse Body and a spherical slip joint for Diesel EGR systems, underscoring its continuous pursuit of product excellence and customer value.
