The invention relates to the technical field of heating furnaces, in particular to a burners control method for each furnace section of a soaking pit, wherein a smoke outlet is formed in each furnacesection. The method comprises the following steps of dividing all burners in a target furnace section into four types of burner groups; and adjusting the switching degree of each burner in the four types of burner groups to a corresponding preset opening degree, so that the switch degree of the first type burner group, the second type burner group, and the third type burner group is increased in sequence, and the switch degree of the fourth type burner group is reduced compared with the switch degree of the third burner group, thus the false judgment of a secondary control system of the soaking pit caused by higher temperature of a zone far away from a smoke outlet is effectively avoided, a stable combustion state is still ensured when the discharge temperature of a slab is lower, a flameout phenomenon is avoided, a secondary combustion of the smoke outlet is also reduced, the energy consumption of the heating furnace is reduced, the heating instruction of the slab is improved, and theservice life of a heat exchanger is prolonged.
