Abstract

A method for removing foreign material such as paints and coatings from workpieces using a mobile furnace. The workpieces are flash heated so that only the surface is heated to remove the coatings without heating the core of the workpieces. Deformation of the workpiece and degradation of the thermal treatment of the workpiece material is thereby avoided.
