[0002] After the metal powder laying 3D printer is completed, in order to change the organization performance of the printed part and eliminate stress and reduce deformation, vacuum annealing treatment is required.

Since the rack (66) and the gear (63) are meshed and driven, and the gear (63) is fixedly connected to the furnace door mounting plate (61), the furnace door mounting plate (61) is driven to change from a vertical horizontal plane to a parallel horizontal plane. The furnace opening of the furnace chamber (53) is sealed by the furnace door cover (62). At this time, the cooling fan (67) on the back of the furnace door is activated. Located at the top of the furnace tank (41), the cooling fan (67) on the back of the furnace door blows cold air downwards to cool the furnace tank (41), and the cooling fans (19) on both sides blow air to accelerate the cooling. When the temperature is cooled to a suitable level, the flip drive cylinder (65) is reset, so that the furnace door mounting plate (61) is reset synchronously, the furnace tank connecting flange (45) is disconnected from the lower sealing flange (21), and the furnace tank unit (4) is lifted by the furnace tank unit lifting drive motor (15). At this time, the heat-treated substrate can be taken out.
