Sementasyon yapılan SAE 8620 çeliğinde meydana gelen kalıntı gerilmelerin incelenmesi

Bu çalışmada, dişli çark ve mil gibi makine parçalarının yapımında yaygın olarak kullanılan SAE 8620 (21NiCrMo2) sementasyon çeliğinde, sementasyon işlemleri sonucunda meydana gelen kalıntı gerilmeler incelenmiştir. Gaz atmosferinde 940 C 'de sementasyon işlemleri yapılan numunelerin kalıntı gerilme değerleri ve kalıntı östenit miktarları X-ışını difraksiyonu metoduyla tespit edilmiştir. Sementasyon yapılan tüm numunelerin yüzey ve yüzey altı bölgelerinde basma kalıntı gerilmeleri meydana gelmiştir. Sementasyon derinliğinin artması basma kalıntı gerilmelerinin düşmesine neden olmuştur.

An investigation of residual stresses developed in carburized SAE 8620 steel

In this study, the residual stresses developed in carburized SAE 8620 (21NiCrMo2) steel were investigated. Carburizing programs were carried out in gas atmosphere at 940 C. X-ray diffraction was used to determine residual stresses and retained austenite levels in the case-hardened microstructures of the carburized specimens. Test results indicated that residual stresses are all compressive at the carburized cases of specimens. The thicker case depth exhibited the lower compressive residual stress at the surfaces and/or very near the surfaces of carburized specimens.
