Day 3 - To attend this course you must attend Days 1 and 2 first


Introduction to Heat Treatment: Quenching and Tempering

in this third day course you will investigate the role of various heat treatments on structure and hardness on the properties of materials.


You will:

  • revisit the two samples from Days 1 and 2,

  • prepare this material of heat treatment with appropriate identification,

  • identify time, temperature and transformation (TTT) for each material and linking these to appropriate heat treatment data,

  • investigate the fracture tests,

  • follow best practice for recording identification,

  • prepare a series of heat treatment tests that will change the structure and properties of the material, including hardness and establish the outcomes using industrial data,

  • conduct heat treatment identifying and recording time, temperature, heating and cooling rates.

  • identify time, temperature, heating and best cooling rates,

  • conduct a Water Quenching procedure, making reference to appropriate technical data,

  • conduct a Tempering after nine, referring to appropriate technical data,

  • prepare macro/micro samples for examination of longitudinal and transverse direction,

  • investigate and micro examine unetched and etched sample materials

  • undertake hardness testing on both heat treated samples,

  • compare the structure and properties with current data and industrial standards and with the 'original material as received' with Anneal and Normalise, Quench and Tempering,

  • identify changes in metallographic features and compare with ASM Handbooks and other data,

  • investigate structure and mechanical testing properties and user requirements,

  • discuss and identify why heat treat,

  • provide a simple charge of structure, properties and hardness.
