Abstract:
Over the years many articles and discussions have centered
on the merits of controlled shot peening. Some of these
discussions refer to the continuing progress being made on
understanding the metallurgy at the surface of the part and
in the sub-layer. As the technology available to analyze the
results of our peening effort evolves, we tend to focus on factors
such as microstructure, X-Ray diffraction, shot shape, shot
hardness, part distortion and stress analysis to name a few.
All of the above are very significant and necessary studies,
but what about the novice shot peener or the company
that may have recently obtained its first shot peening
machine? Highly technical discussions can be confusing and
intimidating for those who have just entered the field of shot
peening.
