The invention relates to a method for the impact treatment of transition radii (8) of a crankshaft (4, 4′), in particular transition radii (8) between connecting rod bearing journals (5, 5′) and crank webs (7, 7′) and/or transition radii (8) between main bearing journals (6, 6′) and the crank webs (7, 7′) of the crankshaft (4, 4′). The crankshaft (4, 4′) is then rotated along a rotational direction into an impact position by means of a drive device (3, 3′). A locking device (12) is provided in order to lock the crankshaft (4, 4′) in the impact position, and an impact force is then introduced into at least one transition radius (8) by at least one impact tool (16, 16′).

The present invention provides a preventive maintenance method for a steel bridge capable of significantly shortening a construction period, significantly cutting cost, and accurately determining whether peening has appropriately been performed. The preventive maintenance method includes: an abrasive blast-cleaning step of performing abrasive blast-cleaning; a peening step of performing shot peening: a fluorescent coating material application step of applying a fluorescent coating material before the peening step; and a coverage determination step of irradiating a portion applied with the fluorescent coating material with an ultraviolet ray after the peening step, so as to calculate coverage on the basis of a residual fluorescent coating material that fluoresces.

A device and method are provided for peening a surface. The peening device comprises a rotatable member, a flexible line that extends from the rotatable member and a peening element that is provided on the flexible line. In use, the line and peening element are rotated about the rotatable member such that when the peening element comes into contact with the surface, the surface is peened as result of kinetic energy of the peening element.

A device for controlling deformation of a large-scale crankshaft comprising a crankshaft holder that is arranged for fixing the crankshaft so that the crankshaft is aligned with an axis; a regulatory bracket that is arranged on the crankshaft holder at a position corresponding to the crankshaft; and a high-energy acoustic beam transducer that is arranged on the bracket and is provided with an end part coupled with the crankshaft. The crankshaft is fixed through the crankshaft holder, high-energy ultrasonic waves are injected into the crankshaft by the transducer, mass points in the crankshaft are driven to vibrate along the acoustic beam direction, and machining residual stress of the crankshaft is removed through the high-energy acoustic beam to realize the regulation and control of the residual stress in the material in the specific direction, so that machining precision of the crankshaft is ensured and machining deformation of the crankshaft is reduced.

A micro-nano incremental mechanical surface treatment method, comprising the following steps: using a modification tool having a designable end to contact a surface of a substrate material, rotating the modification tool in a local region and compressing the material surface, presetting processing parameters by means of 3D modeling software, and after the tool has processed the entire surface, enabling the tool to move downwards to the indented surface compressed previously. The process continues until the surface material is compressed to a pre-defined thickness, thereby achieving the goals of grain refinement and surface performance improvement. By means of the present method, a workpiece having a complex shape can be flexibly and designably surface modified. The method has the advantages of high bonding strength, no pollution, and low cost.

An ultrasonic roller burnishing system comprises a roller and a controller. The roller is configured to be pressed against a surface of a workpiece to a pressing depth, roll on the surface at a feed rate, and vibrate at an ultrasonic frequency under a back pressure. The roller is pressed and rolled by a motion unit which is driven by a drive motor. The vibrating of the roller is driven by an ultrasonic vibration unit with an input current inputted thereinto. The controller is configured to adjust at least one of the pressing depth, the back pressure, the input current and the feed rate based on an expected residual compressive stress and a real time output power of the drive motor, to generate a residual compressive stress in the workpiece which is in an expected range predetermined based on the expected residual compressive stress.

With the method according to the invention, mould parts for casting moulds for light metal casting can be treated such that the danger of crack formation in the region of the surface sections of the mould part coming into contact with the light metal melt during casting is reduced to a minimum. This is achieved in that by means of nitriding treatment on the mould part a nitride-hardened edge layer adjoining its free surface is generated which is harder than the inner core region of the mould part and comprises a diffusion layer adjoining the core region and a compound layer located on the diffusion layer and adjoining the free surface of the mould part and in that at least one section of the surface of the mould part is mechanically processed by machine hammer peening, in the case of which a hammer tool, which, at a certain impact frequency, carries out an impact movement along a movement axis which is aligned in relation to the free surface at a certain acute angle, is guided continuously over the free surface of the mould part following a track determined in a preceding design step such that the compound layer is removed by the impacting stress in the impact region of the hammer tool.
