An example peening tool includes at least one first roller having a peening surface disposed about and along a first core. At least a portion of the at least one first roller is configured to contact a component to be peened along a length. The length extends along at least a portion of the first core. The at least one first roller is configured to provide line contact on the component along the length. A profile of the at least one first roller is determined based on a profile of the component. The peening tool includes a backer disposed in register with the first plurality of rollers such that the first plurality of rollers moves with the backer during peening. The at least one first roller and the backer are configured to be arranged on opposing surfaces of the component. Peening models may predict peening parameters and controller settings.

The invention relates to a roller burnishing tool 10 with a base body 12 extending along a longitudinal center axis 11, at least one roller holder 14 arranged radially adjustably on the base body 12, which holds a roller 15 rotatably, and an adjusting device 16 arranged in the base body 12 for adjusting the roller holder 14 cooperates in the radial direction with the roller holder 14. According to the invention, the roller holder 14 has a holder arm 18b holding the roller 15, which can be pivoted out in a radial direction by the adjusting device 16 relative to the base body 12 in a radial direction.

A piston ring (2) having increased fatigue resistance includes a plastically deformable material. The piston ring (2) has a running face (4), which is delimited at the top by an upper running face edge (3) and at the bottom by a lower running face edge (1). Compressive stresses are introduced into the upper running face edge (3) and/or into the lower running face edge (1) along at least one part of the circumference, the compressive stresses having been produced by roller burnishing.

The invention discloses a hard-rolling roller head with two separate housings for deep rolling the outside radii of adjoining crankpins of a split-pin crankshaft. The hard-rolling roller head provides an effective support of the two housings against one another, when machining split-pin crankshafts, and simultaneously prevents the upper areas of these housings from drifting apart.

A roll body for a hydrostatic rolling tool includes a center, an axis of rotation running through the center, and a machining zone for rolling a workpiece. The roll body is rotatable about the axis of rotation and the machining zone has a working profile line formed in a cross-section of the roll body. The working profile line has a first working arc extending around a first machining center and a second working arc extending around a second machining center. The first machining center is arranged offset to the center, and the second machining center is arranged offset to the center and offset to the first machining center. In an example embodiment, the roll body has a parallel to the axis of rotation, the first machining center lies in the cross-section on the parallel, and the second machining center lies in the cross-section on the parallel.

A method of manufacturing a threaded hole in a workpiece includes providing the workpiece having a region with a hole. The method also includes cutting a threading for the hole. Furthermore, the method includes, independent of cutting the threading, densifying the region proximate the hole to reduce material porosity in the region.
