Features: This book starts with the basic theoretical knowledge of heat treatment, including topics such as crystals, crystal structures, the properties of metals, the iron-carbon alloy phase diagram, annealing, normalizing, quenching, tempering, and surface heat treatment in metallurgy. It then gradually transitions to various practical techniques in the heat treatment production process, typical part heat treatment processes, the use of common heat treatment equipment, and the integration of modern technology with traditional heat treatment processes, highlighting both advanced and practical aspects. The book is divided into eight chapters, with the first two chapters serving as the foundation for the subsequent chapters and being key to mastering heat treatment processes. The last six chapters focus on practical production operations and applications. Among them, the heat treatment of commonly used structural steels and tool steels is introduced. Chapter 5 covers vacuum heat treatment, including basic vacuum knowledge, vacuum heat treatment, equipment, and technical parameters. Chapter 6 primarily focuses on heat treatment equipment, introducing equipment that has been modernized through technological upgrades on traditional heat treatment equipment. Chapter 7 discusses heat treatment processes using four typical parts as examples. The book addresses various potential problems that may arise in each stage of heat treatment production, aiming to solve practical issues encountered during operations and improve production skills. This book is suitable for on-site workers, technical workers, and process engineers in heat treatment workshops to study and use, as well as for faculty and students of higher vocational and technical schools as a teaching reference. The book starts with the basic theoretical knowledge of heat treatment, including crystals, crystal structures, the properties of metals, the iron-carbon alloy phase diagram, annealing, normalizing, quenching, tempering, and surface heat treatment.
