Induction hardening is an efficient surface hardening process that uses electromagnetic induction to generate eddy currents and rapidly heat metal components. It produces a martensitic microstructure upon quenching that increases hardness, strength, and wear resistance while minimizing distortion compared to traditional furnace treatments. Induction hardening takes less than a minute, whereas nitriding and carburizing can take hours, and it induces higher compressive residual stresses in the surface.

Induction hardening is a process of hardening which is used to harden the particular or part to be required to be hardened. In this they used the faraday lows of induction.
This presentation provides an introduction into the basics of heat treating, primarily steel alloys. Heat treat processes for strengthening steel, or through hardening, using quench and temper, martempering, and austempering will be introduced and explained using the iron-carbon phase diagram and time-temperature-transformation diagrams to help understand the transformations occurring.
Precipitation hardening techniques will be introduced, which apply to one group of stainless steels, aluminum alloys and high performance materials.

Preheat and post-heat treatments applied during welding will also be briefly discussed.
The document discusses several advanced welding techniques: friction welding, explosive welding, laser beam welding, plasma arc welding, resistance welding, and thermite welding. Friction welding uses mechanical friction to generate heat and join metals without filler. Explosive welding accelerates one metal at high speed into another. Laser beam welding uses a concentrated laser heat source to make narrow, deep welds. Plasma arc welding uses an electric arc and constricted plasma to reach very high temperatures. Resistance welding generates heat through electrical resistance to join metal sheets. Thermite welding uses a thermite reaction to melt and join metals. These techniques are used in automotive, shipbuilding, aerospace and other industries.

It provides details on carbon arc welding including that it uses a non-consumable carbon electrode and shielding gas or flux may be used depending on the metal welded. Gas tungsten arc welding is described next, noting it uses a tungsten electrode and inert gas. Finally, gas metal arc welding is covered, explaining it uses a continuously fed consumable wire electrode and inert gas shielding.
Resistance welding is described as an electric welding process where heat is generated by resistance of the workpieces to electric current in a circuit. Pressure is applied simultaneously with current to produce coalescence. Common resistance welding techniques include spot welding, seam welding, projection welding, and flash butt welding. Spot welding involves passing current through overlapping metal sheets held between electrodes to create nugget welds. Seam and projection welding can continuously weld moving sheets using arrays of electrodes.

The document discusses various heat treatment processes used to alter the properties of metals and alloys. It describes processes like normalizing, annealing, hardening, and tempering. Normalizing involves heating above the critical temperature and air cooling to refine grains. Annealing fully softens metals by heating above the critical temperature and slow cooling. Hardening involves heating above the critical temperature and quenching in water or oil to form martensite. Tempering reduces the brittleness of hardened steel by reheating below the critical temperature.
1. Solidification occurs when a liquid metal cools and transforms into a solid below its melting point, through the process of nucleation and crystal growth.
2. During nucleation, small clusters of atoms (nuclei) form in the undercooled liquid, which must reach a critical size to become stable crystals.
3. Once stable nuclei form, the crystals grow through addition of atoms from the liquid until they impinge on neighboring crystals. Cooling curves can be used to study phase changes during solidification of pure metals and alloys.
Electron beam welding and friction weldingPravinkumar
The document discusses the process of electron beam welding. It explains that electron beam welding uses a concentrated beam of high velocity electrons to melt and fuse metal surfaces. The kinetic energy of the electrons is converted to thermal energy when they strike the workpiece. It describes the key steps of the welding process, including vacuum pumping, preheating if needed, focusing the electron beam onto the joint, and controlling variables like voltage and speed. Advantages are high quality welds on difficult materials, while disadvantages include high costs and needing skilled operators. Applications include welding refractory metals and dissimilar metals.
TTT diagram and Heat treatment processesSaumy Agarwal
The document discusses TTT (time-temperature-transformation) diagrams and heat treatment processes. It explains that TTT diagrams show the structures that form after various cooling rates from the austenite phase. The diagrams graphically depict the cooling rates required to form pearlite, bainite, or martensite. Common heat treatments include annealing, normalizing, quenching, and tempering. Annealing relieves stresses and improves ductility while normalizing produces a more uniform grain structure. Quenching followed by tempering increases hardness but reduces brittleness. Surface hardening techniques like carburizing and nitriding introduce carbon or nitrogen to harden the surface.
Submerged arc welding is a mechanized welding process where the arc and molten weld are protected from atmospheric contamination by being "submerged" under a blanket of granular fusible flux. It provides high quality welds at high deposition rates without spatter, sparks, or fumes. SAW is commonly used for welding large structures like pressure vessels, ship hulls, and pipelines due to its consistency and efficiency.
Heat treatment involves heating and cooling metals and alloys to obtain desirable properties or conditions. It includes processes like annealing, normalizing, hardening, and tempering. Heat treatment can relieve stresses, improve machinability and ductility, and make structures more homogeneous.
This document analyzes the effects of temperature on the series resistance determination of electrodeposited Cr/n-Si/Au-Sb Schottky structures. Current-voltage (I-V) measurements were taken from 80-320 K to extract parameters like barrier height, ideality factor, and series resistance. The barrier height decreased and ideality factor increased with decreasing temperature, attributed to current flowing through lower barrier patches at low temperatures. Cheung and Norde methods were used to analyze I-V curves and determine series resistance values, which generally increased with decreasing temperature. Good agreement was found between series resistance values from the different analysis methods.
This document summarizes research on the thermal performance of light steel-framed walls. Thermal bridges were reduced through double framing, exterior insulation, and perforated steel profiles. Laboratory tests and simulations showed that perforated profiles can reduce heat conduction by 70-80% compared to solid steel. Field measurements of steel houses in Finland found no condensation issues. Thermal transmittance values from simulations matched well with standardized laboratory measurements.

This document describes an investigation of the LaAlO3-SrTiO3 (LAO-STO) heterointerface using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The sample was prepared using pulsed laser deposition to grow a thin film of LAO on a STO substrate, followed by ion slicing to produce a wedge-shaped cross-section for TEM analysis. The TEM results revealed a high-density two-dimensional electron gas formed at the LAO-STO interface, which has potential applications in next-generation electronic devices and holds promise for novel electronic properties.
The document summarizes a study that investigated the temperature dependent current-voltage (I-V) and capacitance-voltage (C-V) characteristics of chromium Schottky contacts formed on n-type silicon substrates by electrodeposition from 80-320K. The diode parameters such as ideality factor and barrier height were extracted from I-V measurements and showed an abnormal decrease in barrier height and increase in ideality factor with decreasing temperature. This was explained by a double Gaussian distribution of barrier heights over two temperature regions. Analysis of the I-V characteristics confirmed mean barrier heights of 0.910eV and 0.693eV for the two regions.
FINITE ELEMENT SIMULATION OF WELDING IN STEEL PIPES AND PLATESIjorat1
Welding is a common joint type in the fabrication of structural members in aerospace, aeronautical and
pressure vessel industries. Welding is highly reliable and efficient metal joining process. The thermal response of
materials to a welding heat source sometimes causes mechanical problems, e.g. residual stresses and distortion and
changes in mechanical properties due to changes in the microstructure. The Finite Element Method (FEM) is the most
commonly used numerical technique, which provides accurate estimates of thermal parameters for this analysis. Finite
Element Analysis (FEA) is a tool used especially in determining the thermal stresses and temperature distribution of
the welded models, which are difficult to analyze by hand calculations. The objective of the current work is to study
transient temperature in both arc welded pipe and welded plate of 304L stainless steel. The object is modeled in 3D and
analyzed using FEA with an element type of SOLID70 and heat density of the moving circular area heat source is used.
Knowledge of temperature distribution patterns is useful in any welding process to predict microstructure and
distortion. In the current work a model has been developed to predict the thermal cycles during welding of 304L

This document discusses a two-way arc welding process that aims to improve weld penetration without substantial cost increases compared to other deep penetration welding methods like laser beam welding. The process involves placing a second electrode on the opposite side of the workpiece so that welding current flows through the keyhole instead of just along the surface. Experimental results showed that two-way arc welding achieved much deeper penetration than conventional arc welding. It also reduced weld defects and heat input. Microstructural analysis found finer grain structures in the heat affected zone and tensile tests showed the welds had a ductile fracture mode.

Finite Element Simulation of Plasma Transferred ARC Welding [PTAW] of Structu...IJERA Editor
Plasma transferred Arc welding is one of the most widely used welding process, in which the metals are fused just above the melting point, and makes the metal to fuse. It is employed in many applications like tool die and metal casting, strip metal welding etc. This investigation is to analyze temperature distribution residual stress and distortion by varying the heat source parameter in SYSWELD, and compared the results with ANSYS. The simulation of Plasma Transferred Arc welding was of structural steel plate performed using a non-linear transient heat transfer analysis. Heat losses due to convection and variation of material properties with temperature were considered in this analysis. To incorporate the heat developed the Gaussian distribution was considered. Finite element simulations were performed using ANSYS Parametric Design Language (APDL) code and using SYSWELD. The temperatures obtained were compared with experimental results for validation. It was found that the predicted values of temperature agree very well with the experimental values. Residual Stress and Distortion were also predicted for various heat Input. The effect of heat input on residual stress and distortion was investigated.
Thermal cutting processes use heat sources like flames, plasma arcs, or laser beams to cut materials. Some key thermal cutting processes described in the document are flame cutting, which uses a heating flame and oxygen stream to cut materials, and plasma cutting, which uses an electrically conductive plasma gas and arc to cut electrically conductive materials. Laser beam cutting is also discussed, which uses a concentrated laser beam to heat and cut materials, achieving very precise cuts up to 12 mm thick in steel. Thermal cutting processes can be automated and are widely used in manufacturing industries for cutting components and preparing welding edges.

NTSB’s experimental data implies that the local temperature of the battery casing’s Type 304 stainless steel hotspots directly exposed to the internal short’s arc plasma didn’t just get to the melting point of such steel (~1,482 degrees C) --- instead these local areas got all the way up to the boiling point of stainless (> 3,000 degrees Centigrade), were turned into a gaseous vapor (expanding in volume by >50,000 x in the process of vaporizing); solid steel then recondensed from hot metallic vapor in the form of perfect nanoscale steel spheres as portions of the super-hot metallic Fe-alloy vapor quench-cooled. We will now briefly review some high points and conclusions concerning this important factual data:
Almost nothing can withstand enormous, star-surface-like local temperatures created by arcs or LENRS and remain unreactive.
Creation of nightmarish local “witches’ brew cauldrons” of inter-reacting compounds and ions in some regions of failing batteries; very fast, hyper-accelerated reaction rates in superheated zones.
Witches’ cauldrons can generate their own supplies of Oxygen to support combustion processes that propagate spatially within and between battery cells via fast-moving, autocatalytic flame-fronts coupled with intense emission of thermal infrared and UV radiation.
Arc- and/or LENR-heated regions’ behavior is almost more akin to chemistry of stellar atmospheres than ‘normal’ electrochemistry.
Speculation - extreme events involve thermite-like pyrotechnic metal reactions.
Damage observed to materials located inside Logan battery enclosure were consistent with main destructive processes being venting and partial combustion of flammable electrolyte liquids; measured weight loss of ~6 lbs. vs. exemplar battery is consistent with this hypothesis; no large-scale evidence for occurrence of thermite-like pyrotechnic reactions; if so, would have had vastly worse damage.
Conclusion: Logan battery runaway was not a worst-case Armageddon scenario.
IRJET- Carburizing of Plane Carbon Steels by Electrolyte PlasmaIRJET Journal
This document summarizes research on carburizing plain carbon steels through electrolyte plasma. Specifically, it examines carburizing ASTM A-36 steel (mild steel) using a plasma electrolytic carburizing process in a glycerin and ammonium chloride solution. The experiment involved applying a DC voltage to generate plasma around steel specimens submerged in the electrolyte for 5-10 minutes at 400°C. Analysis found the carburized layers averaged 3.4 μm and 5.7 μm thick for 5- and 10-minute samples, with average microhardness of 210 HV and 228 HV. Increased voltage resulted in more carbon deposition on specimens' surfaces and higher microhardness.
IRJET- Carburizing of Plane Carbon Steels by Electrolyte PlasmaIRJET Journal
This document discusses plasma electrolytic carburizing of mild steel (ASTM A-36) to improve its surface properties. Mild steel samples were carburized in a solution of glycerin, ammonium chloride and water at 400°C for times ranging from 5 to 10 minutes. Longer carburization times resulted in thicker carburized layers with higher microhardness. The microstructure of the carburized layers consisted of martensite with finer grain sizes for longer treatment times. Plasma electrolytic carburizing decreased the wear rate and surface roughness of the mild steel samples.

Addressing the Energy Efficiency First Principle in a National Energy and Cli...Leonardo ENERGY
When designing energy and climate policies, EU Member States have to apply the Energy Efficiency First Principle: priority should be given to measures reducing energy consumption before other decarbonization interventions are adopted. This webinar summarizes elements of the energy and climate policy of Cyprus illustrating how national authorities have addressed this principle so far, and outline challenges towards its much more rigorous implementation that is required in the coming years.

Energy and mobility poverty: Will the Social Climate Fund be enough to delive...Leonardo ENERGY
Prior to the current soaring energy prices across Europe, the European Commission proposed, as part of the FitFor55 climate and energy package, the EU Social Climate Fund to mitigate the expected social impact of extending the EU ETS to transport and heating.
The report presented in this webinar provides an update of the European Energy Poverty Index, published for the first time in 2019, which shows the combined effect of energy and mobility poverty across Member States. Beyond the regular update of the index, the report provides analysis of the existing EU policy framework related to energy and transport poverty. France is used as a case study given the “yellow vest” movement, which was triggered by the proposed carbon tax on fuels.

Energy efficiency, structural change and energy savings in the manufacturing ...Leonardo ENERGY
- Structural changes in manufacturing have significantly reduced energy consumption in Denmark since 1990 through growth in lower intensity sectors like food production.
- Energy efficiency improvements also contributed, especially from 2010-2014, lowering consumption alongside structural changes.
- A decomposition analysis found that decreases in consumption from 2006-2014 were mainly from structural effects in the first half, and efficiency gains in the latter half.
- Reported energy savings from Denmark's energy efficiency obligation scheme align with estimated efficiency improvements, though some autonomous gains likely occurred too.
Energy Sufficiency Indicators and Policies (Lea Gynther, Motiva)Leonardo ENERGY
This policy brief looks at questions ‘how to measure energy sufficiency’, ‘which policies and measures can be used to address energy sufficiency’ and ‘how they are used in Europe today’.
Energy sufficiency refers to a situation where everyone has access to the energy services they need, whilst the impacts of the energy system do not exceed environmental limits. The level of ambition needed to address energy sufficiency is higher than in the case of energy efficiency.
This is the 13th edition of the Odyssee-Mure on Energy Efficiency Academy, and number 519 in the Leonardo ENERGY series. The recording of the live presentation can be found on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jEAdYbI0wDI&list=PLUFRNkTrB5O_V155aGXfZ4b3R0fvT7sKz

STAGES OF THE PROCESS
Surface induction hardening represents the most
interesting application of induction heating making
possible to achieve thin surface layer with different
mechanical properties in comparison to those of the core
material .
The process consists of:
-fast heating the layer to be hardened up to a temperature
higher than the upper critical temperature making
possible to form austenite structure,
-holding the body at this temperature for a sufficient time
in order to obtain a structural equilibrium in the regions,
-subsequent fast quenching in order to cool intensively the
structure stable at high temperature or one convenient
transformation (martensitic structure).

FEATURES
- possibility to localize the treatment within a surface layer of the
body facing the inductor,
- thickness of hardened layer depends on frequency of field current,
power density, material properties of material and the heating time;
- big volumetric Joule losses achieved by using of high frequency field
currents and short heating times, make possible to obtain requested
very thin hardened layer

DEFINITION OF OPTIMAL PARAMETERS
There are no simple general rules that allow to define optimal parameters of
the process:
- distribution of the eddy-currents in the treated body and optimum values
of the heating time, the time interval between the end of the heating and
the beginning of the quenching and the quenching velocity.
Besides on the material properties, these elements depend on the shape of
the hardened body, the presence of holes, teeth or edges, the thickness of
the layer to be hardened, the distance between the inductor and workpiece
surface, the position of the inductor’s edges etc.

HARDENED PROFILE
Also the results obtained with the most modern models of numerical
simulation, require a successive experimental verification and adjustment of
the inductor, usage of flux concentrators in order to achieve the results
required.
Moreover, in many cases, the hardened profile is not the one desired by the
designer (hardening of gears, crankshafts etc.) but the one that can be
obtained by the practice of induction heating.

CONTENT OF CARBON
And the percent of martensite (the curve at 99% corresponds to
a complete hardening with a total transformation of austenite into
martensite); it shows that in practice, only a small improvement of the
hardness may be achieved when the carbon content of the steel
exceeds 0.6%. For this reason, only steels with a carbon content
between 0,4 to 0,6% are normally used.

1. It can be observed that the
carbon content influences on the
upper critical temperature AC3
above which the formation of
austenite takes place.
2. Also the value of the upper
critical temperature AC3 depends
on rate of heating.
3. For rapid induction heating the

to guarantee a minimum time

TEMPERATURE DISTRIBUTION
Once the hardening depth and the steel grade are given, it is necessary
to heat all points of the layer to be hardened to a temperature above
the AC3 (or to higher values for rapid heating), while at the same time
keeping to lower temperature the internal layers.
This can be achieved with rapid heating at high or medium frequency
field current, which can give rise to considerable temperature gradients
in the layer to be hardened much higher than the ones achievable by
the flame hardening.

COMPLETE HARDENING
In particular the curves corresponding to cooling rates, higher or equal
to the critical one ,prevent the intersection of the perlite and bainite
transformation regions. c V
Therefore occurs the complete transformation of austenite into
martensite, with only some percentage of residual austenite if the steel
is highly alloyed, thus realizing the so-called complete hardening.

INCOMPLETE HARDENING
The martensite is a hard and brittle constituent whose hardness is
higher, the higher is the content of carbon.
However, for lower cooling rates, one obtains various microstructures
corresponding to the presence of the various constituents determined
by the points of intersection between the cooling curve and the
transformation curve.
In particular, for cooling rates lower than the critical one, one obtains
an incomplete hardening in which the austenite transforms partially
into bainite and partially into martensite; for even lower rates one
obtains the normalizing of steels with medium alloying content,
whereas the curve 1 represents a complete annealing cycle.

DIFFERENT MICROSTRUCTURES
In the hardening of workpieces of considerable dimensions, it must be
taken into account that the surface layers cool down with a rate higher
than the critical one, whereas the internal layers with velocities
progressively decreasing in the cross-section, from the surface towards
the core. This gives rise to different microstructures with constant
hardness in the region where the cooling velocities are higher than and
hardness gradually decreasing towards the core to the values
characteristic for the thermally unaffected material.

BASED ON EXPERIMENT
In this case, the analytical calculation become extremely complex, even
under the consideration of constant material parameters. Therefore,
one must always refer to experimental diagrams.
In the two cases of non-moving workpiece and scan hardening, the
power of the high frequency generator necessary to harden a given
area will be substantially different.

QUENCHANTS
The choice of the quenching fluid has the same importance as that of the heating
regime; this choice must be done taking into account the mechanical and
metallurgical properties required, the steel grade, and the shape as well as the
dimensions of the workpiece.
The most used quenching media are:
water,
oil,
synthetic polymers fluids,
other like aqueous emulsions of oil, solutions of water and salt, air, baths of salt
melts, some metal melts.

INTERNAL STRESSES
1. As known, the martensitic transformation causes a volume increase.
2. Too fast or irregular transformation induces substantial internal
stresses which can cause deformations and cracks, especially in the
case of complex geometries or surface defects.
3. Temperature differences between the quenching curves of the
surface layers and the ones of the core, which cools down slower,
increase with high quenching rates.
4. It causes expansion of the internal mass against the hardened
surface layer and a higher internal residual stress with the possibility of
the workpiece distortion and formation of cracks.

SPRAY QUENCHING
In the case of water quenching, especially with plain carbon steels,
optimal results are obtained with spray quenching, where the water
runs over the hot surface at high velocity, preventing the formation of a
vapor film which reduces the heat transfer between the workpiece and
the quenchant.
However, it may sometimes cause local unhardened areas.

LOWER QUENCHING RATES
With lower quenching rates (oil or polymer solution quenching), the
difference between the internal and external temperatures is lower;
there with derives that before the surface layer has reached the point
Mf, causing the brittle casing of martensite, the most internal part of
the workpiece has been already transformed and has undergone the
consequent expansion.
Due to the lower internal mass which transforms after the surface layer
has finished its transformation, the above mentioned problems are
reduced proportionally.

REDUCTION OF STRESSES
Sometimes, for bodies of complicated shape the quenching in air can
be utile in which, due to the low quenching velocity, the transformation
occurs practically contemporaneous in the whole mass of the piece, so
reducing the internal stress to a minimum and hence the risk of cracks.
In the case of quenching by immersion, the workpieces are always kept
in rotation and the quenching bath is maintained at controlled
temperature; due to its inflammability, the hardening in oil is always
done by immersion or in similar conditions.

Steel tubes transporting mixtures of loose materials (for
example sands) and water have to be highly mechanically
resistant, particularly with respect to abrasion.
The basic way how to meet this demand is hardening of
their internal surfaces that may be realized by means of
induction heating, using movable internal or external
inductor and water sprayer.

GEAR WHEELS
One typical example of hardening a geometrically complex workpiece is
the simultaneous hardening of gears, where the purpose of the process
is to obtain a uniform hardened layer along the whole surface, namely
at the tip, along the flanks, and the roots of the teeth.
In this case, the choice of the frequency results to be of fundamental
importance not only from the “electrical” point of view, but also the
thermal one.

VARIOUS PATTERNS
1. The gears are rotated during heating to ensure an even distribution
of energy.
2. It is possible to through harden the gear part down to the tooth root
(in the same way as the case hardening) or to harden the outer surface
at either a uniform or irregular depth from the surface.
3. The best pattern is usually a uniform thickness of the hardened layer
along the contour.
4. Different patterns may be acceptable or sometimes desirable
depending on the application. Breaks in the hardened layer may be
accepted on the tips of the teeth where mechanical loading is very low,
while on the flanks and roots it must be continuous in order to
withstand big contact pressure and tensile stresses from loading.

MAIN PARAMETERS
The main parameters which play a dominant role in obtaining the
required hardness pattern are:
Field current frequency,
Its power density,
heating time,
quenching conditions and
Geometry of the system.
In particular, contour hardening can be obtained by single-frequency or
dual-frequency processes.

SINGLE FREQUENCY TREATMENT
The single-frequency single-shot hardening process is a spin hardening
in which all teeth are simultaneously contour hardened by means of a
single frequency inductor. It requires the use of high induced power
densities and very short heating times in order to avoid the diffusion of
heat from the surface layer to the lower material and the consequent
through hardening of the teeth.
The process requires a convenient choice of the operating frequency in
order to obtain suitable values of the induced power densities at the
flanks, tips and roots of the teeth.

PULSING SINGLE FREQUENCY
The single frequency contour hardening with pre-heating (the so called
also “Pulsing Single Frequency” process) has been developed consisting
of several consecutive stages
preheating with a reduced power up to approximately 550 - 750 ºC
(dependent on the material),
a short final heating with higher specific power to the hardening
temperature,
quenching and a low-power heating stage for tempering.

PREHEATING
Pre-heating allows to reach a convenient heated depth at the roots of
the gear, enabling to attain an adequately high austenitizing
temperature in the
root circle during the final heating, without overheating the tooth tips;
this process cycle allows in many cases to reach the desired
metallurgical results and to decrease distortion in some materials. The
preheating time, dependent on size and shape of the gear, is followed
by a soak time which allows to achieve a nearly uniform temperature
distribution across the teeth of the gear and a contour-like hardened
profile by using high power density at the final heating stage.

MICROSTRUCTURE
It is well known that the microstructure conditions of the
metal prior to the gear hardening are of fundamental
importance for the repeatability of the mechanical and
metallurgical results of the heat treatment. In particular,
initial conditions characterised by homogeneous fine-
grained quenched and tempered martensitic microstructure
with hardness of 30-34 HRC, are particularly favourable for
assuring a fast and consistent metal response to the heat
treatment, reduced distortion and minimum amount of the
grain growth, resulting in higher hardness and deeper case
depth in comparison to the ferritic/perlitic initial
microstructure.

DUAL FREQUENCY HARDENING
As previously mentioned, the use of two different frequencies is the
logical solution for obtaining a uniform hardened depth along the
contour of the gear. However, the range of the gear diameters suitable
for the dual frequency process is limited to gears with diameter lower
than 250 mm for economic reasons, due to the very short heating
times and the corresponding high power densities, which require the
use of frequency converters at medium and high frequency with unit
output power ranging from several hundreds of kW to some MW.

SEPARATE FREQUENCY PROCESS
In these processes two frequencies are applied separately in sequence
to the same workpiece: pre-heating is accomplished in the first step of
the heating cycle by applying a low power density at MF (usually in the
range 3 -10 kHz), while during the final heating stage a high power
density at HF is used for contour hardening. The selection of suitable
values of the frequency of the final pulse, in the range 30 - 450 kHz -
depending on the type of gear, its size and material – and the heating
time allows to obtain the desired hardened depth.
In the great majority of cases the MF and HF frequency converters are
connected to two different coils, which are spatially separated,

PREHEATING
The gear is preheated to a temperature which is usually 100-350ºC
below the critical temperature AC1, depending upon type and size of
the gear, tooth shape, prior microstructure, required hardness pattern
and distortion (which increases with preheating temperature) and
available power source.
Obviously, the higher is the pre-heating temperature, the lower is the
power for the final pulse. However, the increase of the pre-heating
temperature can produce an increased distortion.

CONTOUR HARDENING
After preheating the contour hardening with HF is effected. Heating
times are in the range from tenths of seconds to seconds, depending
on the module, and the final stage requires a very fine control of time
and power.
To avoid through heating of the tooth, the final austenitizing operation
must be very short (often < 1 second), which requires very fast transfer
of the work piece from one inductor to the other and very high power
switching speeds.

ONE INDUCTOR ONLY
A refinement of the dual-frequency method uses one common
inductor, which is first connected to the MF power supply circuit and
then switched into the HF circuit.
A limit of this technique is the time required for power switching,
typically about 0.5 second.

results also when the prior microstructure of the steel is not
particularly suitable for hardening.
