Force cooling parts?

[Guest]

Anyone force cool their freshly baked parts?

I want to take my freshly baked parts, let them cool to like 250 and then hang them out side to cool off quicker. Will this cause cracking/adverse effects?

Its -4 out right now, that will cool just about anything fast.

I do that myself in the winter. I haven't had any problems so far and I've done it with both aluminum rims and thick steel piping.

It doesn't get very cold here, especially nowhere close to 0 or below, so hanging parts outside doesn't usually do much. However, I have put them in front of a fan before and didn't notice any problems.

Cooling tunnels are used in many manufacturing plants to cool the part down after the dry off oven and also after the cure oven...

How cold do these cooling tunnels usually get? Are they normally ambient temperature with blowers or do they actually cool down the air?

Sorry to say but it depends on the plant....some will use chilled air and some ambient....no black and white, just gray
