Title
Electromagnetic Testing Methods for the Detection of Tendency to Chilling
Abstract
"White" solidified zones - ledeburite and cemenite components - in iron castings worsen the loadability and cause problems during machining. The micromagnetic test method described here enables the non-destructive detection of tendency to chilling. It also enables detection of a too high percentage of ferrite in the microstructure. The results determined by non-destructive testing have been confirmed through metallographic tests at the location of the magnetic measurement.
