ABSTRACT:
A heat insulated enclosure with an inlet introducing metal parts such as coil springs to be heat treated, such as by annealing. The apparatus also includes a support on which the metal parts are received, where they are continuously moved towards an outlet. A continuous flow of hot air is circulated substantially perpendicularly with respect to the metal parts to provide the heat treatment. This can be achieved by means of a rotary disk to receive the metal parts and allowing them to follow a spiral path until reaching the outlet. This system enables a continuous operation and is therefor much cheaper to operate.
