Utility
Systems and Methods for Almen Strip Correction
9 Nov 23
A method for calibrating a shot peening device includes receiving, by a controller, one or more parameters representative of the shot peening device, receiving, by the controller, one or more parameters representative of a test strip for use with the shot peening device, determining, by the controller, a compensation value for the test strip based on the one or more parameters representative of the shot peening device and on the one or more parameters representative of the test strip, receiving, by the controller, an arc height of the test strip following an introduction of the test strip into a shot stream generated by the shot peening device, generating, by the controller, a compensated curvature value based on the compensation value and the arc height, and presenting, by the controller, a calibration suggestion based on the compensated curvature value.
