Contour Hardening, based in Indianapolis, Indiana, provides thermal processing and hardening services for difficult heat-treatment applications, focusing on cost-effective solutions for complex components. The company developed a computer-controlled induction heating system to rapidly harden gear teeth and other irregular parts, a capability first built in 1986 and still used today. It emphasizes custom engineering, building equipment in-house when off-the-shelf solutions do not meet client specifications, supported by in-house metallurgists and engineers. The firm serves the machinery manufacturing sector, supplying automotive and related industries with components such as crankshafts, camshafts, bearings, gears, and steering components that require precise case hardening. In 2019, Contour Hardening received GM's Supplier Quality Excellence Award for 2019 at its U.S. and Mexico locations, reflecting a recognition of quality in its supplier partnerships.
