Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017129599A1] The invention relates to a method and a device for the heat treatment of a metal component, and a use of a furnace for heating a metal component. The invention can be used in the partial hardening of optionally pre-coated components made of a high-strength manganese-boron steel. A method according to the invention for the heat treatment of a metal component (1) comprises at least the following steps: a) heating the component (1) in a first furnace (2); b) moving the component (1) into a tempering station (3); c) cooling at least one first sub-region (4) of the component (1) in the tempering station (3), wherein a temperature difference is set between the at least one first sub-region (4) and at least one second sub-region (5) of the component (1); d) moving the component (1) from the tempering station (3) into a second furnace (6); e) heating at least the at least one first sub-region (4) of the component (1) in the second furnace (6) by at least 200 K.
