Abstract
This paper deals with application of instrumented indentation technique for quality inspection methodology for automobile component. For this, the instrumented indentation tests were performed the normal and cracked compressor journal, which is made from spheroidal graphite cast iron and utilized in air-conditioning system. And the Brinell hardness was estimated using the unloading slope and maximum indentation force. With the aid of Normal distribution, this Brinell hardness was statistically compared and analyzed with hardness measured by indentation hardness tests. Also, application possibility of reliability-based quality inspection criteria for compressor journal was evaluated through the probabilistic analysis for the Brinell hardness estimated by instrumented indentation technique.
