Age Hardening
A process that requires very good temperature uniformity, and is also very time dependent. Cycle times can be in some cases 18 hours plus. The advantage of the fluid bed process, aside from the uniformity, is also the ability to reduce process time due to the fast and efficient heat transfer to the component.
