This study developed a new system to address the maintenance challenges of conventional high-temperature thermocouple techniques. Utilizing LabVIEW, the system simplifies complex circuitry, allowing for high-precision and flexible temperature control with basic technical knowledge. Testing confirmed its reliability and ability to control complex temperature patterns. The system successfully created a TTT diagram for a specific material, and image analysis enabled objective, quantitative determination of crystallization timing. This new system offers a significant advancement in high-temperature observation and control.
