Abstract
Systems and methods for performing adjustable ratio control for a furnace with a plurality of workpieces located within a furnace and a sensor for determining the temperature of each of the workpieces. Adjustable ratio control is performed by controlling the temperature of an atmosphere of the furnace wherein a first workpiece with a lower temperature is heated at a higher rate than a second workpiece with a higher temperature.
