AEROSPACE METALLOGRAPHY & COATING EVALUATION
|
| |
|
The aerospace industry consists of a number of engine manufacturers, supported by a far greater number of suppliers. Each manufacturer often has their own specifications relating to coating evaluation and disposition. For that reason, IMR Test Labs has developed a training course to meet the training needs of the entire industry. Certificate provided upon successful completion of the course materials.
Cost: $2950

| EVALUATION OF MACHINED SURFACES |
|
|
The various methods of machining include conventional processes such as sawing, turning, milling, grinding, drilling, honing, broaching, cutting, etc. and non-conventional processes such as electrical discharge material removal, electrochemical material removal, laser beam material removal electron beam material removal, etc.). These machining processes can and do damage component surfaces and have the potential to deleteriously impact material performance. This course will cover the basics of machining with an emphasis on metallographic preparation and evaluation to identify acceptable and unacceptable surface structures imparted by machining processes. The focus will be on those alloy systems (aluminum, titanium, nickel-base alloys) employed in the aerospace industry.

PRACTICAL FRACTURE MECHANICS
|
| |
|
This course is designed to provide a practical understanding of fracture mechanics principles through a combination of lecture and problem solving workshops. Design and failure analysis for monotonic and cyclic loaded components will be covered. Take away a new understanding of topics such as fracture toughness testing, ductile fracture testing, stress corrosion cracking and fatigue failure. Linear and non-linear fracture mechanic concepts and methods appropriate for a given loading or failure mode will be applied to make sense of this sometimes confusing discipline.
Course runs from 8 am - 5 pm

| PRACTICAL FRACTOGRAPHY |
|
|
This course is designed to provide a practical understanding of fractography through a combination of lecture and hands on experience. Theory and examples presented in the lectures are reinforced by macro and micro examination of failed parts in the lab. Visual examination as well as stereo microscopy and scanning electron microscopy will be utilized to interpret example fractures. Improve your skills in this vital portion of most failure examinations.

| SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPY |
| |
|
This course is a practical introduction to Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). SEM is a common and often essential tool in the evaluation and analysis of materials. The course is designed for both beginning and intermediate SEM users, and offers a hands-on approach to electron microscopy that includes tips and tricks the student can use in his or her own laboratory. In addition to imaging detectors, SEMs are often equipped with instrumentation for analysis of X-ray signals generated by beam/sample interactions. Energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS) is the most common method to identify and quantify elements present in a bulk samples or small (micron-scale) particles and phases. A significant portion of the course is devoted to understanding the origin and interpretation of X-ray data by EDS.

| THERMAL SPRAY PROCESS TRAINING |
| |
| With any technical process, trained and experienced operating and engineering personnel are a key ingredient for success. This is important in both development and production implementation of any technology. Thermal spray is no exception to this requirement. This course provides a practical mix of theory and hands-on instruction at your facility that results in operators and process engineers with “problem solving” capabilities. During the 5 day on-site course, students fill their “thermal spray toolbox” with valuable tools to solve real time thermal spray issues when they return to the production environment. The training is customized to your processes, equipment, and coating issues. Testing of personnel is focused on your needs and requirements. |
|
The course includes:
· Outline of Standard Thermal Spray (TS) Processes
· Theory of Thermal Spray Processes
· Cleaning and Grit Blasting
· Cooling, Fixturing, and Masking
· Process Control, Testing, Powders, and Applications
· Practical Hands-on Use of the Equipment
· Hands-on rebuild of Equipment
· Hands-on Use and Theory of Plume Sensors
