Definition from
wikipedia:
Le recuit d'une pièce métallique est un procédé correspondant à un cycle de chauffage, maintien en température puis refroidissement permettant de modifier les caractéristiques d'un métal. À l'occasion d'un recuit, les grains (mono-cristaux) du métal se reforment. Ce procédé est utilisé pour éliminer les effets de phénomènes mécaniques ou thermiques considérés comme néfastes.<br />Le recuit est également utilisé pour changer les propriétés magnétiques d'une pièce.
Example sentences:

EP0454054: Dispositif de recuit à la lampe. (espacenet)
Le procédé comprend l'introduction dans un moule d'une composition polymérisable en un verre organique transparent, la polymérisation de la composition (...) et éventuellement un recuit thermique de relaxation des contraintes du substrat. (Espacenet)
