Bogie spring performance can be improved by using the exact heat treatment process parameters. The purpose of the study is to determine the critical transformation temperatures and investigate the effect of the cooling rates on microstructural and mechanical properties. The precise determination of the required cooling rates for the particular grade of steel is important in order to optimise the heat treatment process of heavy-duty compression helical spring manufacturing. A traditional heat treatment system for the manufacture of hot coiled springs requires heating the steel to homogenize austenite; then, it is decomposed to martensite by rapid cooling. By analyzing the transition properties by heating and differing cooling rates, this analysis examines the thermal behaviour of high strength spring steel. Using the dilatometer and differential scanning calorimeter, scanning electron microscope, optical microscope, and hardness checking, critical transition temperatures and cooling rates of three springs steels were measured. Although the thermal transformation of materials has been researched for decades using dilatometers, not all materials have been characterized. The research offers insights into the critical transformation temperatures for the defined grades of spring steel and the role of cooling rates in the material’s properties. Mechanical properties are influenced by the transition data obtained from the dilatometric analysis.

This study is conducted to analyze the effect on the Hardness and Micro Structural Behaviour of three Sample Grades of Tool Steel i.e. EN-31, EN-8, and D3 after Heat Treatment Processes Such As Annealing, Normalizing, and Hardening and Tempering. The purpose of Selecting Tool Steel is Because Tool Steel is Mostly Used in the Manufacturing Industry.This study is based upon the empirical study which means it is derived from experiment and observation rather than theory.

The paper presents a failure analysis on a counterweight assembly installed on crank shaft which resulted in an in-flight shutdown of a piston aeroengine. The counterweight assembly failure includes counterweight block material loss and fractured washer which is the most crucial part for in-flight shutdown in this type of aeroengine. Macro observation, fractography analysis, metallography analysis and hardness test were conducted on the failed counterweight assembly. The result shows that failure mechanism of counterweight block and washer is fatigue. The washer failure is likely due to inappropriate heat treatment process and continuous impact in flight by slightly tilted roller. Counterweight material loss is attributed to stress concentration, low structure strength and impact came from the tilted roller. Finally some safety suggestion on design and maintenance is given.
