Which rack design should I use? It’s common for structural castings to undergo heat treatment. During the long process, casting stresses are relieved & the component suffers distortion due to creep. Different support structures lead to differences in distortions because of how the casting relaxes in the structure. In this example, the shock tower is placed in 2 rack designs. The resulting deviation is different depending on the structure used. With MAGMASOFT®, engineers can predict the distortion & design a structure that will guarantee proper mounting on the vehicle. #MAGMAtips

The Complexity of Heat Treatment Rack Design There’s a lot more that goes into heat treatment rack design than meets the eye. It’s not just about holding parts—it’s about engineering a solution that ensures optimal results every time. Key considerations include:   - Mechanical Properties: Designing for strength and durability under extreme conditions.   - Movement Control: Managing the movement of both the rack and castings during the process.   - Creep Resistance: Controlling deformation during high-temperature phases.   - Robustness: Ensuring the rack can handle repeated use while accommodating varying casting dimensions and furnace locations. Material selection plays a huge role as well. The rack needs to resist thermal stress and deformation over time while enabling uniform heat distribution for consistent results. Finally, tailoring the rack design to match the specific geometry and functional needs of the casting is critical to achieving ideal material properties and minimizing deformation. Heat treatment rack design is a blend of science, engineering, and experience. What are your thoughts or challenges in this area? Let’s start a conversation below!

😉 😊 Tips: Here are some important features and advantages of screw machine taps: 🛠 Strong chip evacuation ability: The spiral groove design enables it to effectively discharge chips during the cutting process, improving production efficiency and reducing tool wear. 🛠 Wide range of application: It is especially suitable for processing deep holes and blind holes, because the chips can be smoothly discharged from the hole and will not accumulate at the bottom of the hole. 🛠 High processing quality: It helps to reduce friction and heat during the cutting process and obtain better thread surface quality. 🛠 Materials and coatings: Usually made of high-speed steel (HSS) or high-speed steel cobalt (HSS-Co), the surface may be coated (such as titanium coating) to increase tool life. 🛠 Diversified design: Different pitches and thread specifications are available to meet various specific needs.

Searching for chain that can reliably meet the extreme demands of your customers’ ultra-heavy-load applications? Look no further than Lynx Super Heavy chain! SH series chain is dimensionally identical to the ANSI standard. Heavy Series and single-strand SH chain will run on standard sprockets. It’s also got a few unique features that set it apart from ordinary heavy chain: 🔹 Special high-strength, through-hardened alloy pins give Lynx SH series chain a much higher tensile strength and load capacity. 🔹 Wider-than-standard link plates greatly increase shock-load and elongation resistance. 🔹 Quad-staked pins increase holding power on the sideplates to better withstand shock loads. 🔹 Solid bushing and rollers have superior roundness and strength for better resistance to distortion in heavy and shock-load applications. 🔹 SH chain is submerged in an extended hot oil bath—2x longer than the industry standard!—to give the oil time to penetrate so all parts of the chain are properly lubricated.
