The paper considers causes of principal defects in thermal treatment of bearings and presents the results of microstructural analysis of samples taken from rejected ball bearing steel. It states the causes of the identified defects and introduces proposals aimed at reducing the incidence of defects in bearing manufacture arising during the thermal treatment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
