Beside a guided tour of the technical laboratories of the metallurgical department, our team had the chance to visit the steel plant of “Liberty Ostrava a.s.”. In the exchange program, we gave for [...]
Kornfeinung von hochmanganhaltigen Weichenherzen mittels heterogenen Keimstellen
Kurzbeschreibung der Problemstellung Über 25 % aller Weichenherzen in Österreich bestehen aus Hadfield-Stahl, welcher mit 12-14 Massen-% Mangan legiert ist und zur Gruppe zur Gruppe der austenitischen Stähle gehört. Da diese Stähle keine Phasenumwandlung im festen Zustand aufweisen und Weichenherzen reine Gußprodukte ohne nachfolgenden Umformschritt sind, ist die Kornfeinung während des Giesens [...]
