This week's Katy Spring capability features a half-inch, oil-tempered compression spring, used in the agriculture industry.
Larger springs like these, weighing four-and-a-half pounds each, are stress relieved in large batch ovens.
Heavy-duty wire baskets, like the ones shown in this photograph, are loaded by hand and put into the oven with a forklift.
These heavier springs are too large and require longer baking times to be stressed relieved in an inline oven.
