SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING A HARDENED AND TEMPERED STRUCTURAL MEMBER

摘要

System and methods relating to in-line heat-treating, hardening and tempering of material, such as for example, coiled steel into a roll-formed, hardened and tempered structural member having uniform or different targeted properties in selected zones of the structural member. The different targeted properties may be achieved by heating and/or cooling the material subject to certain parameters.
