Significance and Use4.1 This guide helps purchasers assess induction processesincluding the critical parameters that can affect product quality.It guides the evaluation of heat-treating vendor performanceand capabilities to ensure higher an

19、d more consistent productquality.4.2 Refer to Appendix X1 for a flow chart for the use of thisguide.5. Equipment5.1 Equipment CapabilitiesEquipment used to producethe desired heat-treated product shall be capable of achievingtarget heat-treat parameters. Parameters shall be documentedas per Section

20、6, and Section 7 shall be used to verify that themanufacturing procedure has been well developed, properparameter tolerances have been selected, and equipment iscapable of achieving all parameter settings. Documented pro-cedures for the verification of equipment capabilities,calibration, and mainten

21、ance shall be maintained. These docu-mented procedures shall address all critical equipment for theinduction heat treatment line including, at minimum, thefollowing:5.1.1 All power supply units including relevantcomponents,5.1.2 All induction coils,5.1.3 Quench system and components,5.1.4 Pyrometers

22、 and other temperature-sensing devices,5.1.5 Material handling as it pertains to line speed control,and5.1.6 Controls.5.2 The documented procedures shall address verification,calibration, and maintenance of the equipment as described inthe following.5.3 Verification and Calibration of EquipmentEquip

23、mentfor the heat-treating line shall be verified and calibrated at alevel necessary to achieve the tolerances determined in Section6. It is recommended that calibration of test equipment followthe guidelines in ANSI/NCSL Z540.3. Equipment capabilitiesare related to the product chemistry, product dim

24、ensions, andproduction rate. It is possible that different products mayrequire different tolerance ranges for parameter settings. Thesetolerance ranges shall be documented as part of the manufac-turing procedures (Section 6). Classification and characteriza-tion of a heat-treat line based on equipme

25、nt accuracy rangesand equipment capabilities may be conducted using the methoddescribed in Appendix X4. It is recommended that verificationof equipment performance be conducted with heated product.Cold tests (for example, testing material handling, sensors, andcontrols) are useful, but equipment on

26、an induction heattreating line may behave differently with heated product.5.3.1 Power Supply Units:5.3.1.1 The power supply units shall be capable of achiev-ing the rated power and nominal frequency designated for theequipment by the manufacturer. Heating capabilities to achievetarget temperatures s

27、hould be verified at the point of installa-tion of new power equipment, including ancillary equipmentand devices such as connecting power cables and inductioncoils, and records of these capabilities should be kept (see 9.1).NOTE 1The output power is a function of the voltage and current ofthe electr

28、ical system. If voltage or current is limited (because of highinductance, for example), the maximum power will be limited. For thisreason, it is important to ensure that the power supply is evaluated with theinduction coil and desired product so that accurate power capabilities aredetermined.5.3.1.2

29、 The power level for any given manufactured productmay be selected at the heat treaters discretion to achieve thenecessary target manufacturing procedure parameters. Theoutput power stability should be monitored at regular intervalsto ensure sufficient power stability to achieve the tolerancelevels

30、documented in Section 6. Incoming power to the plantcan affect output power stability; therefore, incoming powermay be monitored to ensure consistent output power capabili-ties. Various power quality measuring devices are available formonitoring incoming plant power and output power duringoperation.

31、5.3.1.3 The frequency at each induction coil should beverified and documented within each manufacturing procedureto ensure heating consistency. Periodic checks of the frequencyat the induction coils should be conducted.NOTE 2The frequency is affected by the power level and theinductance of the syste

32、m. Changes to the coil design, size of product,cooling media through the coil, current/voltage ratio, coil cableconnections, and other factors can affect the frequency at the output coil.Changes in the output frequency can affect the depth of the inducedcurrent in the work piece (skin depth) and, th

33、erefore, the thermal gradientwithin the work piece (see Appendix X3). Frequency can be measuredusing most standard multi-meters.5.3.1.4 It is not expected that power supply units willrequire calibration unless otherwise stipulated by the manufac-turer of the equipment. Calibration and verification s

34、hall followthe manufacturers recommended schedule or the scheduleoutlined in Table 1, whichever is more frequent.5.3.2 Induction CoilsInduction coils are an important partof the power supply units. The verified power output andvoltage/current match depend on the interconnection of coilsand power sup

35、ply units. For example, connecting coils in seriesor parallel to a power supply may significantly affect efficiency,inductance, and overall ability to heat the product. Verificationof equipment should include consideration of coil connectionsand interconnect wiring functionality. Reverification of o

36、utputpower capabilities should occur after any changes to the coildesigns or the interconnections. In the instance of multipleA1100 162induction coil designs on the same line, all coils will beproperly identified, and design/model number will be specifiedin the manufacturing procedure.5.3.3 Quench S

37、ystem:5.3.3.1 Quench media composition shall be documented forevery manufacturing procedure. Composition may includedocumentation of polymer chemistry, supplier, age, brineconcentration, water chemistry, and so forth as applicable.Verification of quench media composition, if applicable, shallbe cond

38、ucted at the interval specified in Table 1. Use of arefractometer is recommended, when applicable, to determinethe concentration at the start and during the operation. Notethat quench media compositions are also affected by wastematerial in the quench (that is, scale, rust, and so forth). It maybe n

39、ecessary to periodically discard and replace quench mediaas it becomes contaminated with minerals, oil, scale, rust, andother undesirable materials. The frequency of this refreshing ofthe quenchant depends on results from periodic monitoring ofquenchant chemistry.5.3.3.2 Quench flow rate shall be ve

40、rified periodicallyaccording to the schedule in Table 1 using a method suggestedby the equipment manufacturer or selected by the producer anddescribed in a documented procedure maintained by the heattreater.5.3.4 Pyrometers:5.3.4.1 Pyrometers shall be placed at positions along theheat treat line to

41、establish heating rates and soak timesaccurately, as appropriate for the application. Pyrometer posi-tion shall be consistent and recorded (see 9.1).5.3.4.2 Pyrometer calibration by the pyrometer manufac-turer typically entails calibration using a blackbody furnaceunder highly controlled conditions.

42、 The tolerance and accuracyof a pyrometer on a heat-treat mill can be significantly reducedcompared to measurement of a blackbody furnace in laboratoryconditions. The tolerance and accuracy for each pyrometershall be provided by the pyrometer manufacturer based on thetarget material composition and

43、temperature for the pyrometerapplication. In addition, it is recommended that pyrometeraccuracy be verified during production with the use of a“master” pyrometer. The master pyrometer may be a hand-heldor other unit in which the accuracy of the device has beenverified off-line using a target materia

44、l with similar surfacefinish, composition, temperature, and ambient conditions com-pared to the heated product. Temperature accuracy of themaster pyrometer is typically verified through the use ofthermocouples attached to the off-line target material. Com-parison to the master pyrometer should not b

45、e considered areplacement for regular calibration of the on-line pyrometers,which should be performed according to the manufacturersspecification. Records of pyrometer calibration and verificationshall be maintained (see 9.1). Calibration and verificationshould follow the manufacturers recommended s

46、chedule orthe schedule outline in Table 1.NOTE 3Proper selection of an appropriate pyrometer technology isessential to ensuring the accuracy. Single-wavelength pyrometers are mostcommon, but also least accurate. Higher accuracy can typically beachieved with shorter wavelength pyrometers, but pyromet

47、er accuracy isalso highly influenced by the emissivity setting.Additional information onTABLE 1 Verification and Calibration FrequencyParameters/Features to Verify Event Reverification FrequencyAPower Supply Power Stability Nominal frequency rangeAfter installation/commissioning ofnew power supply u
