Summary:
In this article, the author explores the standard process of bending straightening on a carburized pinion gear shaft. To do so, computer-aided engineering (CAE) analysis is used to simulate the process but accurate information about its heat treatment history is needed to accurately calculate not just the distortion but also the case depth and material composition.
