Applications of Metallographic Microscopes in the Metal Machinery Industry
The application areas and importance of metallography mainly include the following aspects
1 can be used for the verification of raw materials and processes
2. Metallographic inspection can be conducted on semi-finished products during the manufacturing process to ensure that the microstructure of the product meets the processing requirements of the next process.
There is a certain correspondence between the microstructure and properties of the three materials, based on which suitable materials can be selected.
Provide a basis for the performance, reliability, and service life of in-service parts.
5. Determine and identify the qualification of product processes.
6. Discovering process and material defects, providing macroscopic and microscopic analysis basis for the analysis of failure causes.
7 provides important basis for adjusting research directions and processes.
The role of metallography
1. Quality control of products: every link in the production process of products, from the acceptance of raw materials, control of processing technology, to the evaluation of semi-finished and finished product quality.
Research on Heat Treatment Process of Steel: The heat treatment principle of steel is based on the phase transformation of steel during heating and cooling processes, and metallographic technology is an important experimental method for phase transformation research.
The development of shape memory alloys: Shape memory alloys were also discovered through metallographic analysis.
4 Failure analysis: Mechanical equipment and parts are difficult to completely avoid failures in the form of deformation, fracture, wear, and corrosion during use. Metallographic examination is used to identify the causes and take preventive measures.
5. Accident analysis: The application of fire accident analysis and evidence in the field of fire cause identification has good repeatability, comparability, and intuitiveness.
