How do they match: Heat Treating Equipment Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic

  • Determine flame temperatures, current frequencies, heating cycles, and induction heating coils needed, based on degree of hardness required and properties of stock to be treated.
  • Determine types and temperatures of baths and quenching media needed to attain specified part hardness, toughness, and ductility, using heat-treating charts and knowledge of methods, equipment, and metals.
  • Repair, replace, and maintain furnace equipment as needed, using hand tools.
