Research on High-Frequency Vibratory Stress Relief of Small Cr12MoV Quenched Specimens

Abstract

Considering that most of the research on vibratory stress relief (VSR) is excited by low-frequency vibration at present, high-frequency-exciting VSR on small Cr12MoV quenched specimens was studied. A high-frequency vibration table system was adopted as the exciter of the VSR. To increase the vibration level, a novel vibration level amplifying device was put forward. High-frequency VSR on the same group of small Cr12MoV quenched specimens was carried out under various vibration levels. The residual stress before and after vibration was comparatively analyzed. The results showed that the high-frequency vibration had the better effect on eliminating and homogenizing the residual stress and that increasing the vibration level of high-frequency-exciting could improve the effect of high-frequency VSR.
