Damage Assessment Using Fractography as Failure Surface Evaluation: Applications in Industrial Metalworking Machinery

Abstract: Fractography is a powerful analytic tool for the evaluation of failure surface topography and root-cause analyses. Fractography, embracing both light and electron optics methods, is utilized in modern failure analysis and is recognized by the engineering community as a unique process for industrial problem solving, evaluating machinery/component failures, and providing solutions for performance improvements. In the present study, the role of fractography is highlighted through characteristic failures of indust… Show more

“…Fractographic evaluation is employed as the principal analytical technique to acquire sufficient evidence regarding the evolved fracture mechanism(s) acted in the component (Pantazopoulos, 2011). The fracture surface of the component consisted of two distinct zones, as far as the topographic features are concerned: a roughgranular area possessing a layered texture (Zone A, Figure 2 , containing isolated pits and cavities, which constitute potential manifestations of a prior chemical or electrochemical degradation process and act as stress raisers and possible crack nucleation sites.…”

“…En el caso de la industria automotriz, estos fallos representan al mismo tiempo, un riesgo en la calidad de cada pieza debido al desgaste del troquel que provocará un defecto en las dimensiones de la pieza y no cumplir con las especificaciones de forma y tamaño haciendo propenso a una falla en el servicio. En el caso de las fracturas o fallas de los dados de forja en caliente y/o matrices para cigüeñales, varios trabajos de investigación clasifican las fallas como catastróficas, Durante el proceso de forja, factores clave como temperatura, tiempo de mantenimiento, la carga de compresión y la velocidad de enfriamiento, juega un papel determinante en la vida útil del troquel de forja del cigüeñal (Christiansen, 2014;Scandian, 2015;Pantazopoulos, 2004) Trabajos de investigación han concluido que las tres fallas principales en las fallas de estos troqueles de forja son: el desgaste abrasivo, la fatiga termo -mecánica y la deformación plástica que actúan simultáneamente, incluso en las primeras etapas de vida de la matriz de forja (Lynch, 2006;Pantazopoulos, 2011;Akhtar A. 2010).…”

“…A investigação da falha em relação as causas de colapso de um equipamento ou estrutura mostra geralmente que a causa está relacionada ao uso indevido do material, presença de defeitos e ainda erros de montagem ou manutenção. O conhecimento das causas e a correção das anormalidades permite a melhoria do material em relação a sua funcionalidade, design e segurança, evitando dessa forma que o mesmo tipo de falha ocorra (Righi et al, 1996;Barbosa et al, 2011;Pantazopoulos et al, 2011).…”
