Abstract

PURPOSE:To ensure a heat treatment under a desired heating pattern effectually by holding each temperature in each room constituting a tunneled furnace to a temperature previously set for each chamber. CONSTITUTION:Temperatures of furnace chambers A-F constituting a tunneled furnace are held at temperatures previously set for the chambers A-F and are kept unchanged. Temperature of an article 8 to be heated changing hourly passing through the furnace is measured, and on the basis of the measured value the article is moved forwardly and backwardly in the furnace to heat and cool the article 8 along a desired heating curve. In other words, the furnace chambers A-F of the rectangular tunneled furnace are kept at different predetermined temperatures, and the article is moved longitudinally of the furnace and resided so as to be heated at target temperature and under target time. Hereby, there is eliminated inconvenience of the temperature of each chamber being raised or lowered, and hence the article 8 is effectually heat treated under a desired heating pattern.
