Surface Treatment & Residual Stress Effects on the Fatigue Strength of Carburised Gears

15 November 2023

“This paper presents results from an investigation into the effects of
different surface peening and blasting processes on the bending fatigue
strength of pulsator tested case carburised gears. A variety of
intensities of treatment have been examined, ranging from light alumina
vapour blasting through to heavy peening with glass beads….”
