Theory of Residual Stresses, Stress Relieving and CQ19 By: Dan Sebastian
What are we going to talk about • Basic metallurgy and how/why do we get residual stresses 2. How residual stresses are created 3. Good stresses vs. bad stresses 4. Shot peening 5. How does stress relieving effect residual stresses 6. Is there a difference in coiling methods 7. CQI-9 and why it is related to residual stresses a. Systematic control b. Physical control

How Residual Stresses are Created Stress-Strain Diagram Bending Stresses Torsional Stresses Compressive Stresses Multi-Stresses
Multi-Stresses 1. Forces vectors are in different direction to the residual stresses 2. Coil springs a. Torsion b. Bending c. Compressive d. Shear 3. Torsion Springs-Bending 4. Metal Stampings a. Bending b. Shear
Good Stressesvs.Bad Stresses Good Stresses: 1. Directly opposite to the creating force (uni-directional) • Bending i. Torsion Springs ii. Leaf Springs b. Compression Springs i. Set Out c. Belleville Washers i. Die Roll St1 & St2
Good Stressesvs.Bad Stresses 2. Adding Compressive Stresses a. Shot Peening Compression Springs i. Non-Stress relieved • Shot Peening Compression Springs i. Stress relieved c. Leaf Springs (one side)
Good Stressesvs.Bad Stresses Bad Stresses: 1. In direction of the creating force 2. Multi-Directional creating force a. Compression Springs b. Torsion Springs that open c. Compression Springs that are used in Extension
Shot Peening How Does it Work What is important: 1. Intensity-Almen Strip 2. Coverage-Optical Examination Negative Consequences: 1. Poor Coverage (Competing Fields) 2. Bending Stresses Post Peening
Stress RelievingHow Does it Work 1. Equalizing Energy Fields a. Under Stress Relieving-Some Stress Remain b. Optimum occurs @ Material Change (tempered material) c. Equilibrium between strain strengthening and forming 2. Restoration of Physical Properties
IS There a Difference inCoiling MethodsResidual Stresses? • Single Point Coiling • Dual Point Coiling • Forming Through the Quill Proper Stress Relieving is Energy Dependent Not Related to Forming The forming method could effect other characteristics but is not stress related
AIAG CQI-9 RequirementsforStress Relieving of Springs E1.2 Continuous strip chart and/or data loggers Systematic requirement to provide proof of temperature exposure Physical Control continuous SPC E2.4 Temperature Uniformity Surveys (TSU) shall be performed annually and after major re-build Systematic requirement to provide proof of temperature is controlled with in tolerance limits in every part of the heating chamber Physical Control continuous SPC control charts are definitive documentation in real time with no time lap
E3.1 Monitor primary temperature control instruments requiring over and under temperature control alarms and a sign off every 2 hours or between lots Systematic requirement to provide proof that temperature does not go over or under set limits and documentation that it is Measured to be accurate every 2 hours Physical Control continuous SPC control charts are definitive documentation in real time with no time lap E3.6 Monitor time in furnace cycle or belt speed twice/shift and after any change in belt speed Systematic requirement to provide proof that temperature was reached and was at the proper temperature for the prescribed time Physical Control continuous SPC control charts are definitive documentation that all the parts are exposed to the temperature for the appropriate amount of time
AIAG CQI-9 RequirementsforStress Relieving of Springs E4.1 Microstructure shall be checked with each production run or each shift at a minimum Systematic requirement to provide metallurgical proof that exposure Physical Control after SMI review with AIAG the realized that this was not necessary as there was no way to optically see a difference Note: With the establishment of an industry standard any deviation from the standard could affect your exposure in any product liability claim
