Scanning Induction Hardening of Steel Coupler
Casing components experienced cracking problems during an induction hardening process. The casing has an OD of 32 inches and is 20 inches tall. The CAD model of the component, as well as the region of high cracking potential, is shown in the figure. DANTE Heat Treatment Simulation software was used to investigate the induction hardening process to identify reasons for cracking and to determine a process modification to eliminate the cracking problem.
