Annealing and normalizing are used for hot worked blanks. Carbon steel and alloy steel with carbon content greater than 0.5% are often annealed in order to reduce their hardness and easy to cut; carbon steel and alloy steel with carbon content less than 0.5%, in order to avoid sticking to the knife when their hardness is too low, And the use of normalizing treatment. Annealing and normalizing can still refine grains and uniform structure to prepare for subsequent heat treatment. Annealing and normalizing are usually scheduled after blank fabrication and before rough machining.
