Abstract:  
While shot peening intensity verification is the well-established standard in shot peening quality control, the more relevant residual stress determination is mostly caught up in laboratories of a production plant or of external service providers. Until today, the related measurement procedures are complex and time consuming. Fast inspection methods for in line inspections are already available but limited to simple setups. With StressEasy, the new software extension to Pulstec’s simple, fast and mobile μ-X360s stress analyzer, sentenso presents a new flexible software tool for the assistance and automation in multiple and complex measurement tasks.
