4. Treatment deformations

During the conventional quenching and tempering process, deformations appear, the origin of which can be attributed to :

  • on the one hand, to volume variations generated by structural transformations ( , carbide precipitation, etc.) and the associated changes in material density;

  • on the other hand, to variations in shape linked to mechanical stresses that may be imposed on steel, whose yield strength is greatly...
