Annealing steel produces a refined grain structure that is typically meant to aid the machinability of the steel. There are occasions where medium alloy steels will actually machine better if they have some hardness in their properties. Annealing changes the strength and hardness of steel, improves ductility or softening, and relieves some stresses.
