Schedules

[Anonymous]

 Hi Diane –

Here’s a brief explanation of the schedule you posted:

ra 1 – 300   1175   .50  – initial heating and bubble squeeze

ra 2 – 300    1400   .10 – this is your process temp

ra 3 – full      960    .40 – rapid cooling and anneal hold

ra 4 – 100     800    .00 – anneal cooling

If you take a look at the firing schedules on this site (under “Tools” in the above menu) you will see that each segment of every schedule is explained.  Simply reviewing several of those can teach you a lot about firing schedules.

Hope this helps
