An exploration of the micromechanical response of nitrocarburised steel
Volvo Trucks
Feb 2022 - Jul 2022
Volvo Trucks in collaboration with RISE wanted to study the micromechanical response of the joining zone of nitrocarburized steels. The project group, also consisting of Bodycote, KTH and Helmholtz-Zentrum Hereon used insitu X-ray microdiffraction during nanoindentation. Synchrotron technique is unprecedented Every year, more than one million engine gears are produced at Volvo Trucks using nitrocarburizing heat treatment. This surface heat-treatment provides fatigue strength, corrosion protection […]

Improving laser powder-bed fusion processes using synchrotron X-rays
Linde
Feb 2020 - Mar 2021
Laser-powder bed fusion is an advanced additive manufacturing technology for producing small and precise metal components. The gas company Linde and Chalmers University of Technology used synchrotron X-rays to study how to improve laser-powder bed fusion processes by looking at how helium influences the solidification of metal materials.
