Annealing Heat Treatment Process and Types of Annealing Furnaces

How does the in-line annealing process actually work? 🔥 In this video, we walk through each step of the in-line annealing process from start to finish. The wire begins its journey with a high-pressure hot-water cleaning stage at about 165°F. After a thorough rinse, it enters the annealing furnace, where temperatures soar between 1,900–2,000°F to soften the wire and enhance ductility. As soon as it leaves the furnace, the wire is rapidly cooled in a quench tank, dropping to roughly 100°F. This f
