High

indicates for how long the curve

was at the upper threshold

value

Max

indicates for how long the curve

was at the maximum threshold

value

Note: The first two lines in the header show the

set threshold values and duration times; to change

them, please use the Curing conditions page.

4.2.2.2 Cure Index

The table Cure index permits a simple evaluation

of the curing process. Here the Cure index - a

measure for the quality of the hardening process

- is computed. An optimal Cure index of 100% is

reached, if the equivalence time for the respective

sensors is calculated and indicated in the column

Equ Time corresponds with the period passed at

the reference temperature (middle temperature).
Similar to the results in the „Critical Values“

section, the „Equivalent Time“ index is calculated

to indicate the quality of the heating process:
The table of results consists of four columns:
Low

indicates for how long the curve

was at the lower threshold value

Mid

indicates for how long the curve

was at the mean threshold value

Upper

indicates for how long the curve

was at the upper threshold value

Equ Time

indicates the corresponding

equivalent heating time

(see Equivalent Time)
