How is solution annealing carried out? What type of furnace is required?..

Answer / Anshu

Solution annealing is a heat treatment process used to improve the properties of metals, such as reducing hardness and increasing ductility. The process involves heating the metal above its recrystallization temperature, holding it at that temperature for a specified time, and then cooling it slowly. For solution annealing, a high-temperature furnace is required, typically operating between 900 to 1200 degrees Celsius. The type of furnace can vary, but commonly used are box furnaces or muffle furnaces.

I currently use 17-7 PH stainless which is hardened to condition CH after forming. raw matl is .1.75"X .12" X .008". Its main usage after hardening is silicon wafer retainer where it's contantly cycled up and down to putin and remove wafer after 40-60 sec process at 400C temp. At this high temperature this part seemed to deform after a a couple of hundred wafer which is what it was designed for in the first place. THere is a proposal to go to a different material to increase lifeline of this part. My question is..... can 321 SST be a plugin replacement. I know this has a higher temp rating but how about its forming characteristics, will it have spring properties, and wont become brittle after prolonged exposure to 400C.
