PREDICATIVE HARDNESS TESTING FOR PRODUCTION CONTROL AND MATERIALS DESIGN
Abstract
In-situ high-temperature rebound hardness testing according to the EQUOTIP® principle is useful to study effects of secondary hardening on strength and thermal stability, e.g., of highly alloyed tool steels. In-line material characterization and in-production testing are now feasible and offer new possibilities for production control and materials design.
