Looking for some advice. What is the best way to reduce distortion with 420 material? Running parts hanging vertically from a fixture at 1950 with a 2bar quench 50% fan speed. I have the ability to hang the parts horizontally. Will this help with any distortion since the weight will be dispersed over a larger surface VS all the weight on a vertical end it is hanged from?
thank you

Parts running in a vacuum furnace at 1950F. Parts are not compacted. Hanging close but no compression on any parts.. The parts are coming in exactly to spec as we put them through a gage prior to running. We are getting various % of fallout on each trial run. We drop them in a gage to show any distortion. Looks to be getting expansion distortion.
