Method and computer program for controlling thermal treatment of metallic workpieces

The method and computer-program comprise generating (I) a new charge, coordinating (IV) a heat treatment program to the charge, manually applying (VI) a charge thermoelement on the charge, sending (VII) the heat treatment program to a storage-programmable control of a furnace, transporting (VIII) the charge in the furnace, starting and carrying out a heat-treatment cycle, and discharging the charge from the furnace. The heat treatment program is associated to the charge exclusively in the first charge and the charge thermoelement is applied on the charge to the charge in the first charge.

The heat treatment program is associated to the charge exclusively in the first charge and the charge thermoelement is applied on the charge to the charge exclusively in the first charge. A new charge is generated in the following charge such as a process step with number of pattern charge, whose heat treatment program is used, and a program step with an automatic coordination of the pattern program belonging to the selected pattern program to the charge. The coordination of heat treatment program to the charge is defined as pattern charge exclusively in the first charge. The charge is defined as pattern charge after the discharging of the charge from the furnace. The pattern program belonging to the pattern charge is automatically generated with explicit program segment duration exclusively in the first charge after the heat treatment cycle and after defining the charge as the pattern charge. The combination with the process and the computer program is retrievable for automatic generation of technological prescription to heat treatment of metallic workpieces in the furnace by values for a material of respective workpiece, information to heat treatment process and technical information of the respective furnace, gradual specification or generation of pre-calculatable parameters for the heat treatment of the workpiece, and by a computer generating the heat treatment program with databases and a programmable storage of generated heat treatment program and/or the
