Improving metal fatigue properties with a gyro polisher. Published in the academic journal Materialia.
By applying nitriding treatment to the metal surface after gyro polishing, we were able to make the crystal grains of the surface compound layer ultra-fine. As a result, it is expected that the fatigue properties of metal materials will be improved by combining gyro polishing and nitriding treatment. The paper is titled “Grain refinement of Fe4N compound layer in nitrided steel”.
