Vorrichtung zur Abstützung metallischer Werkstücke und Verfahren zur thermochemischen Behandlung

Bei der thermochemischen Behandlung werden metallische Werkstücke mittels einer eigens hierfür konfigurierten hochtemperaturbeständigen Vorrichtung abgestützt, um Maß- und Formänderungen bzw. Verzug zu verringern. The present invention relates to devices used during the thermomechanical treatment of workpieces. During thermochemical treatment, metallic workpieces are mounted on and/or shielded by a high-temperature-resistant device configured specifically for this purpose in order to reduce dimensional and shape changes or warping. The inventive devices provide support and flow guiding for metallic workpieces during thermochemical treatment, and include a plate or a ring having a first and a second face, in which the second face is equipped with three or more support elements and the support elements are bound to a support plane.
