BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SHOT PEENING PROCESS
The shot-peening process is a particular case within the range of shot peening processes, whereby compressive stresses are induced in a metallic surface by exposing it to a jet of spherical particles (shot) at high speed and keeping the parameters of the operation under control.
During the shot-peening process, in addition to producing the aforementioned effect, the surface is cleaned as in a normal shot peening task, but this is only a secondary effect of the process, the basic purpose being to increase the fatigue resistance of the material.
When the shot is propelled in a high velocity flow, it impacts on a metallic surface, forming a surface profile consisting of rounded valleys and ridges produced by the plastic deformation of the metal during the impact. This deformation extends between 50 and 250 microns deep.
The effect obtained after shot blasting is the crushing of the metal surface metallographic grains. This has two effects:
- The grains widen, compressing each other and causing the appearance of compressive stresses parallel to the surface. These compressive stresses cancel out residual stresses induced in previous processes such as machining, heat treatment, plastic forming, etc. They also oppose any tensile stresses to which it may be subjected in subsequent use.
- As a secondary effect, as the grains widen, they cover the inter-granular spaces, considerably reducing them and thus the rate of galvanic corrosion.
In summary, the shot peening process increases the fatigue resistance particularly of coil and flat springs, strips, car stabilizer bars, gearbox gears, transmission crowns and pinions, aircraft parts and pieces, oil and mining drill bits and rods, etc. and as a secondary effect it produces an increase in corrosion resistance, the elimination of residual stresses inducing a uniform compressive stress on the entire surface as well as cleaning it by shot peening.
