Abstract
Numerous investigations have been performed in an attempt to improve fatigue strength of materials by creating compressive residual stresses in the surface layers as a result of the shot peening process. For example, during exploitation of the separating screener, some parts of screen sieve plate situated near the fixed edge undergo the largest deformation caused by impact bending and need special treatment. In this paper, the results of experimental tests are presented to analyse the effect of micro shot peening on surface layer characteristics and fatigue strength of steel sheet specimens. The effect of shot peening is more visible when fatigue life is taking into account. Thus, the use of shot peening of sheet surface made it possible to increase fatigue life of screener sieve.
