To be able to supervise the quality of a sintering process, furnace control pieces are therefore used. The current furnace control piece is not sensitive enough small variations during insert production. The goal of the project was to find and evaluate a new suitable cemented carbide grade, which better captures temperature variations during sintering process, likewise, evaluate the alternative placing in the production furnace and methods to supervise and follow the status of the sintering process. The cemented carbide grade 592, which is a DQ-grade, captured larger temperature variations during the sintering compared to the current furnace control piece. The process charge for 592 that captured the largest variations also had the highest charge weight, which indicates that the new grade is also sensitive to the charge weight. The purpose of the project was fulfilled when a more suitable cemented carbide grade, 592, was evaluated for both sintering temperatures 1410 ℃ and 1450 ℃.
