What This Category of Data Looks Like
Heat treatment-related data comes from material grade libraries, customer technical requirements, furnace temperature control instruments, furnace temperature uniformity test reports, hardness tester and metallographic testing equipment data, and workshop MES systems. Data is updated per heat and per batch of workpieces. Daily generated documents include heat treatment process cards, furnace loading layout diagrams, real-time furnace temperature curves, hardness and metallographic analysis reports, equipment inspection sheets, and abnormality handling sheets. Core fields include material grade, heating temperature, holding time, cooling method, and hardness value. Supporting units use degrees Celsius, hours, HRC, and other industry standard units.
Constraints Imposed on Forms and Interactions
The high-frequency update requirement per heat means forms must support quick single-heat entry and bulk submission of multiple heats, to avoid errors from repeated operations. Multiple data sources mean forms must support field mapping for connected devices and systems, reducing manual input errors. Diverse supporting documents require forms to have attachment upload and association functions, binding files like process cards and furnace temperature curves to corresponding bid entries, ensuring complete supporting materials for bid documentation. Professional fields and fixed units require forms to preset unit options and reasonable range checks, lowering information error rates. Severe consequences of errors require forms to set required fields and anomaly checks, ensuring core information in bid documentation is complete and accurate, avoiding unqualified production caused by parameter errors.
Configuration Settings
The following configurations apply to FastGPT v4.17.0:
| Configuration Item | Recommended Setup | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Single-heat form entry | formInput enable quick entry mode | Adapt to high-frequency data update requirements per heat, improve entry efficiency |
| Material grade selection | userSelect link to preset material grade library | Quickly call standardized data, avoid grade errors from manual input |
| Unit presets | Use degrees Celsius for heating temperature, hours for holding time, HRC for hardness values | Align with industry standard field units, reduce manual input errors |
| Form input validation | Heating temperature range 800-1200 degrees Celsius, holding time 0.5-8 hours | Match operating parameter ranges of most heat treatment equipment, avoid unreasonable parameter entry |
| Attachment upload configuration | Support uploading process cards, furnace temperature curves and other files, single file maximum 1000 MB | Meet supporting material requirements for bid documentation, adapt to common document sizes |
| Form submission validation | Mark process parameters and test results as required fields | Ensure core information in bid documentation is complete, avoid missing key content |
Three Common Mistakes
- When configuring knowledge base variable references, failing to clearly associate exclusive data fields for heat treatment, resulting in search results only returning general documents and unable to retrieve bid supporting materials such as furnace temperature curves and hardness reports. The cause is not configuring the parameter range for variable references as required, only specifying a general document category without matching exclusive data fields for the heat treatment category.
- A "required field not filled in" error message appears after form submission. The cause is not setting process parameters and test results as required fields, leading to missing core information in the bid documentation.
- A "file size exceeds limit" error is triggered when uploading a furnace temperature curve file. The cause is not configuring the upload file size limit, and the uploaded file exceeds the system default limit.
How to Confirm Proper Configuration
- Manually enter a set of heat treatment process parameters, check if heating temperature, holding time and other fields automatically match preset units.
- Upload a properly formatted furnace temperature curve file, confirm that the attachment upload function works normally and is automatically associated with the current form entry.
- Try to submit a form without filling in heating temperature or hardness value, confirm that the corresponding error prompt is triggered.
- Configure knowledge base variable references, search for the keyword heat treatment process card, confirm that exclusive document data for this category can be retrieved.
