Heat Treat Doctor Daniel Herring to Debut New Book at ASM Heat Treat Conference and Exposition
Daniel Herring’s latest book on Atmosphere Heat Treatment, Volume II (available for preorder starting in the August/September timeframe) focuses on furnace atmospheres, quenching practices, testing, safety, conservation, maintenance and specification compliance. Together with Volume I (2014), which emphasized fundamental principles, materials, metallurgy, applications and equipment, these volumes provide a comprehensive resource on the subject of atmosphere technology as conducted in furnaces and ovens. It affords unique insights into practices and procedures used throughout the heat treatment industry. Together with its companion work, Vacuum Heat Treatment (2012), the author has provided a well-rounded introduction to this multi-faceted subject. Volume I is currently available through Amazon, ASM International, BNP Media (the publisher) and Industrial Heating.
These works offer the heat treatment industry a unique perspective on atmosphere heat treatment. They are intended to provide the reader with practical advice, a diverse set of application examples and a wide range of technical and engineering information necessary to make informed decisions about why and how to heat treat.
What makes these books unique are that they are written in such a way that engineers, metallurgists, heat-treat operators, supervisors, managers, quality and production engineers or just about anyone interested in thermal processing or manufacturing can become skilled in the art and science of atmosphere heat treatment.
