计算机技术在热处理中的应用不断迅速扩大。美国热处理公司对此作了有代表性的展望认为,微处理机用于设备的功能控制和工艺控制不断发展,显著提高了热处理工艺的再现性和产品质量。微处理机的扩大运用,可促使生产中采用新的和改进的金属工艺技术,或者采用以前只在实验室取得成功的技术,以及由于工艺参数间的复杂关系要求高度熟练操作技术 The application of computer technology in heat treatment continues to expand rapidly. The American heat treatment company made a representative expectation that the functional control and process control of microprocessors used for equipment are evolving, remarkably improving the reproducibility and product quality of the heat treatment process. The expanded use of microprocessors has led to the introduction of new and improved metalworking techniques in production or to techniques previously previously only successful in the laboratory and to the requirement of highly proficient techniques due to the complex relationships between process parameters
