ABSTRACT
This paper describes influence of factors such as particle size (0.55-2.2 mm), particle velocity (15-35 m/s) and work hardness on surface integrity. Hardness, residual
stress and crystal transformation of areas affected by shot peening or grit blasting are examined. In order to clarify the influences of those factors on the surface
integrity, a medium carbon steel (C:0.45%, 180HV) and an austenitic stainless steel (SUS304, 210HV) were peened by a centrifugal type peening machine using cast steel
particles (650-800HV). The following results were obtained: (1) Shot peening maximum hardness is lower while depth of work-hardened layer is thicker. (2) Compressive
residual stresses on the peened surface are larger than that of grit blasting. (3) Critical thickness of shot peening is about 50% thicker than that of grit blasting. (4)
Strain-induced transformation happens with shot peening and grit blasting.
