Getting the thermal treat results you want
How aggressive quenching and other drivers lead to high performance
Gas carburization techniques
A comparison of conventional and accelerated methods for surface hardening
Induction hardening of cast irons
The success in induction hardening of cast irons and repeatability of obtained results are greatly affected by a potential variation of matrix carbon content.
You can’t overlook the process
Cycle verification identifies thermal nonconformance, ensures deviation from requirements is reported
The metallurgical R&D laboratory
Remembering old-school lab work is a blast from the past
Residual stress evaluation in bearings
Lingering stress is not easily identified during production, but has a direct impact on wear performance and fatigue life
Is there a furnace problem?
That question is much easier to answer if you learn the indicators, alarms, switches
