ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for quenching steel plates after they come from an austenitizing furnace. The plates are rotated to a vertical orientation and rapidly submerged into a water bath while being held flat between reciprocating rolls. The superior uniformity and severity of the quench produces plates of commercial flatness and uniform mechanical properties throughout in an apparatus of simple construction and low energy consumption.
