About Us

KANWAY INDUSTRIAL

Established in 1992, KanWay Industrial has long been a pioneer in Taiwan’s mold surface treatment industry. We specialize in high-demand HPDC and hot forging molds, developing our exclusive, internationally-patented KW-NT (Nitriding) and KW-HT (Heat Treatment) technologies through joint R&D with National Taiwan University.

Our superior quality earned the trust of major Japanese-affiliated manufacturers in Taiwan, capturing a 90% market share for exported molds. At our clients’ request, we began our successful overseas technology transfer program in 2005, which has now operated in China and India for over 20 years. We are dedicated to delivering proven solutions that extend die life and enhance your global competitiveness.

Our Global Intellectual Property

Patented Technology, Worldwide

KanWay’s core KW-NT and KW-HT are not just processes; they are proprietary technologies protected by international patents. Our innovations are patented in major industrial nations including the USA, Germany, Japan, Taiwan, China, India, and Vietnam. This is our commitment to quality and your guarantee of technical excellence.

  • HPDC Molds

  • HPDC Molds

    HPDC molds constantly battle thermal fatigue cracks and molten aluminum erosion. Our patented KW-NT and KWO treatments are engineered to suppress crack growth and resist corrosive attack, dramatically extending your die’s service life.

  • Hot Forging Molds

  • Hot Forging Molds

    Hot forging dies endure extreme thermal shock and high-impact stress, leading to severe thermal fatigue, abrasive wear, and plastic deformation. Our KW-NT diffusion treatment is specifically designed to enhance toughness and high-temperature wear resistance, maximizing the operational life of your dies—even on buildup welded (repaired) areas.

  • Low-Pressure Molds

  • Low-Pressure Molds

    This is the classic application for our KWO (Nitriding + Oxidation) treatment. Low-pressure molds, especially for aluminum wheels, suffer from severe chemical erosion (corrosion) from prolonged contact with molten aluminum. KWO was specifically engineered to create a stable, highly resistant surface layer. This process is proven to stop this chemical attack, dramatically extending mold life well beyond 50,000 cycles.

  • Technology Transfer

  • Technology Transfer

    Bring our globally patented KW-NT and KW-HT technology directly into your own factory. We provide a complete in-house solution, including the necessary equipment and full SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures). This proven model, already operating in China and India , saves critical transport time, protects your mold design confidentiality, and gives you ultimate control over quality and lead times.

  • Stainless Steel & Others

  • Stainless Steel & Others

    Our KW-NT process overcomes the biggest challenge in treating stainless steel. We can directly nitride SUS304, 420, and other grades without the need for harsh strong acid cleaning. This unique capability delivers exceptional surface hardness (Hv1000–1300) while simplifying your workflow. This technology is also perfectly suited for enhancing the wear resistance of plastic molds and stamping dies.
