During annealing, softening and, in some cases recrystallization, take place. Carbide spheroidising occurs through diffusion, which is a long-term and energy-intensive process. The holding times, sometimes up to tens of hours make soft annealing one of the most expensive heat treatment processes. The process, which was newly designed at the company COMTES FHT, shortens carbide spheroidising several times and therefore yields considerable time and cost savings. The importance of bearing steels in industrial production is continuously increasing. These steels are not fit for further working unless soft-annealed in many cases. The purpose of this annealing process is to obtain globular carbides uniformly distributed in the matrix and achieve overall softening. The present paper explores the effect of newly-designed time-saving thermal schedules on the carbide spheroidisation behaviour and on the decrease in hardness in bearing steel grade 100CrMn6. The total heat treatment time is on the order of minutes. This offers a vast potential in this area." . "TANGER, Ltd." . . "RIV/26316919:_____/12:#0000336!RIV13-GA0-26316919" .
