What will I learn?
This course equips you with practical skills to design and optimise materials for gears in tough conditions. Delve into microstructure-property links, advanced steels and alloy types, and essential strengthening methods. Master heat treatments, surface modifications, testing techniques, risk management, and specification approaches to enhance wear resistance, fatigue life, and overall reliability in practical scenarios.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Design gear alloys by matching microstructure to loads and service temperatures.
- Optimise heat treatments to control case depth, bainite, and martensite for durability.
- Evaluate gear failures by connecting pitting, scuffing, and cracks to their causes.
- Compare alloy families like steels, titanium, nickel, and bronzes for tough gears.
- Apply quality control and non-destructive evaluation using hardness mapping, metallography, and ultrasonics.
