Steel Through Hardening course - for engineers and technicians

Steel Through Hardening

Steel Through Hardening

This is an on-demand course about the metallurgy of steel through hardening. Learn how alloy composition and heat treating influence steel properties. It is geared for engineers and technicians

Learn about the metallurgy of steel through hardening heat treatments

Getting the strength and hardness you need in your through hardened steel components requires knowledge of the effects of alloy composition and heat treating on steel properties.  With knowledge of the metallurgy of steel through hardening you’ll be better able to

  • Select the most appropriate alloy and heat treating process for your application
  • Evaluate suppliers
  • Develop manufacturing processes
  • Solve quality problems

If your products use through hardened steel components, a good understanding of the metallurgy of steel through hardening is critical for being more productive and profitable.

What you will learn

The following aspects of steel through hardening are taught in this course:

  • Quenching and tempering, martempering, and austempering through hardening process conditions.
  • Effects of steel composition and heat treating temperature and cooling rate on through hardened steel microstructure, strength, and hardness
  • Common through hardening problems and how to avoid them.
  • Effects of tempering temperature and time on steel microstructure, strength, and hardness.
  • Effects of steel composition on hardenability and how to read a hardenability curve.

Course content

The course takes about 1 hour to complete and consists of 2 modules and a final exam.  Each module is 20-30 minutes long.  Also, quizzes and problems give you opportunities to apply the concepts taught.

The module titles are:

  • Module 1: Quenching and tempering
  • Module 2: Martempering and austempering

Prerequisites

To get the most from this course, you should be familiar with the concepts taught in the following courses:

  • "Principles of Metallurgy covered the foundations of metallurgy and effects of manufacturing processes needed to obtain desired mechanical properties. This information has been valuable during my work in both design and manufacturing. I highly recommend it for someone that could benefit from knowledge of the fundamentals of metallurgy."

  • The Principles of Metallurgy course was a great refresher and supplement to the Properties of Materials course I took in college. The content focuses on information relative to industry, which will help greatly in my day-to-day job functions.

  • Well worth the time to do Metallurgy of Steel Heat Treating. It has given me more confidence in my job and given me a better understanding of some of the heat treatments used in the business

    Test House, Abbey Forged Products
  • I learned a bunch from this course. I needed an understanding of the heat treating and metals for our heat treating process in house. I now have a much better understanding of what is accomplished in the process along with understanding what could be a problem in our process.
