316 L annealing
316 L annealing
(OP)
i need detailed information about annealing of 316 L which is used in stent production. If there are micrographs for different anneling temperatures i will be more pleased..

In the first case you need higher temps and longer times. The second case you can do with shorter times at lower temps.
In good L grade material the cooling rate is not a big deal. It is easy to cool quickly from high temp,and once you are under 1200F the cooling rate can be slow, in fact you might want to cool slower to minimize distortion.

How do you anneal now? How do you cool? I presume that the parts are very small and thin.
A small fludized bed system might be good for this since it would be uniform and tightly controled.
