Annealing

After the hardening of steel, it may be necessary, depending on the subsequent application, to perform annealing in order to relieve internal stresses within the material. The higher the annealing temperature, the softer the steel becomes — hardness decreases, while toughness increases.

The induction heating method offers significant advantages in this process: both the temperature and the heating time can be precisely controlled and maintained. This ensures high reproducibility and consistently excellent part quality.
