Heanjia design and manufacture heat treat basket for heat treatment processes to hold and organize parts during heating, cooling, or other thermal processes. These baskets are designed to withstand high temperatures and harsh environments, such as those found in furnaces, quenching tanks, or other heat treatment equipment. They are commonly used in industries like aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing to ensure consistent and efficient heat treatment of metal parts.
Key Features of Heat Treat Basket:
1. Material: Typically made from heat-resistant alloys like stainless steel 310, Inconel, Nichrome, Hastelloy or other high-temperature materials to withstand extreme heat and resist oxidation or deformation.
2. Design: Open-mesh or perforated designs allow for uniform heat distribution and proper airflow around the parts, ensuring consistent treatment.
3. Durability: Built to withstand repeated thermal cycling, mechanical stress, and exposure to quenching oils or other cooling media.
4. Customization: Baskets can be customized in size, shape, and configuration to accommodate specific parts or production needs.
5. Handling: Often equipped with handles, hooks, or lifting points for easy loading, unloading, and transportation.
Heat Treat Basket Applications:
– Annealing: Softening metals to improve machinability or reduce internal stresses.
– Quenching: Rapid cooling of parts to achieve desired hardness.
– Tempering: Reheating to reduce brittleness and improve toughness.
– Carburizing: Adding carbon to the surface of low-carbon steels.
– Nitriding: Introducing nitrogen to harden the surface of metals.
Benefits:
– Efficiency: Allows for batch processing of multiple parts, saving time and energy.
– Consistency: Ensures even heat distribution and uniform treatment of all parts.
– Protection: Prevents parts from touching each other, reducing the risk of damage or distortion.
– Longevity: Durable construction extends the lifespan of the basket, reducing replacement costs.
Maintenance:
– Regularly inspect for wear, cracks, or deformation.
– Clean to remove residues like oil, scale, or debris.
– Store in a dry, clean environment to prevent corrosion.
