For large pieces gas fired conveyor furnaces are used while car bottom furnaces are more practical for smaller pieces of metal.
Hello i have a piece of brass sheet cu 60 zn 40 15cm x 8 cm x 4mm thick.
When the brass starts to show a blackened color then is the time to quench it quickly before.
In metallurgy and materials science annealing is a heat treatment that alters the physical and sometimes chemical properties of a material to increase its ductility and reduce its hardness making it more workable it involves heating a material above its recrystallization temperature maintaining a suitable temperature for an appropriate amount of time and then cooling.
It it possible to anneal it to get e a very soft malleable sheet.
How to anneal brass.
In furnace and is there any trick to get it very very soft kenching in water or alcool methanol thks by advance for every replies nathalie.
Annealing brass is very similar to copper although the temperature should be a little cooler.
During the annealing process the metal is heated to a specific temperature where recrystallization can occur.
