Last Chance to Register: Virtual Heat Treatment of Gear Steels

Date: 2nd & 9th August 2022 Platform: TEAMS Tutor: Philip Clarke Fee: Non Member £225* / BGA Member Free Please note this course is over 2 sessions. You will need to attend all sessions to complete the training. Seminar Programme Philip Clarke will describe the heat treatment of gear steels assuming minimal prior knowledge. After an introduction to the basic metallurgical concepts and key principles, the enhancement of surface properties by carburising and induction hardening will be explained. The properties imparted by, and the consequences and problems of the chosen process with reference to material selection, distortion and growth will be covered with the aid of case histories. The Seminar will cover:

• Introduction to steel heat treatment – metallurgical principles; hardening & tempering

• Carburising

• Introduction to nitriding, nitro-carburising & other surface treatments

• Laser & Electron Beam Hardening

• Induction & flame hardening

• Problem solving – low/high hardness; case-depth

• Controlling distortion
