100% satisfaction by 2022

Educational objectives

Understand and use the knowledge necessary to implement vacuum heat treatments

PROGRAM

1. Knowledge of materials and treatments: why do we need to heat to specific temperatures and observe specific thermal cycles?

• Heat treatments, general presentation

  - General information on materials, transformations

• The families of materials and their treatments

  - Steels: General presentation, structural steels, stainless steels

• Titanium and its alloys

• Superalloys

2. How to carry out the treatments?

• Concepts of heat transfer and its practical consequences

• The treatment cycle

  - Warming up, holding, levels, cooling

• The treatment media and their action on the parts

3. Treatment under vacuum or neutral gas

• The gaseous environment: properties, action of the main gases (nitrogen, argon, air) on materials, control of gases in the workshop

• The void

  - Characteristics, interaction with materials

  - Vacuum production, vacuum pumps

  - Anomalies and incidents: leaks, degassing, residual gases, pollution

  - Vacuum control: gauges, leak controls...

• Vacuum treatment furnaces

  - Furnace equipment

• Pyrometry controls. Notions on oven classes; temperature sensors; measurement, regulation and recording instruments; SAT and TUS

4. Practice of vacuum processing and daily monitoring

• Checking before loading

  - Material and documents, the constitution of the loads

• Monitoring during treatment

• Defournement, verification, control

• Incidents of vacuum treatment. Possibility of demonstration on equipment
