[1] The development of programmable[2] microprocessor controls allowed machines to follow temperature profiles that increased the effectiveness of the process.
The advent of novel metals and their amalgamations in new market products may necessitate alterations to processing profiles to suit these materials.
Additionally, thermal profiles might be revised in response to insights from case studies conducted by either the manufacturer or the clientele of cryogenic services.
Manufacturers facing budget constraints might include obsolete profiles with processors due to limited research funding.
Ongoing research aims to increase the accuracy of temperature treatment profiles, as well as the efficiency of hardware and associated control systems.
