Analysis of rolling contact fatigue of shotpeened ball bearing by X-ray diffraction

X선회절에 의한 SHOTPEENING처리 구름베어링의 구름접촉피로해석

The shotpeening treatment were conducted for improving the strength of rolling contact fatigue of machine element like a gear. This paper was undertaken to analyze the influence of shotpeening treatment for inner race of ball bearing on the roiling contact fatigue. Shotpeening treatment were applied to the full hardened and the carbonitrided bearing. And the rolling contact fatigue life test and X-ray diffraction test were carried out. The results of this study showed that the fatigue life of ball bearing in the clean and the contaminated oil could be improved by shotpeening treatment. This effect was found to be more pronounced to the full hardened bearing.
