Description
Summary:Deep rolling is a mechanical surface treatment for the specific modification of edge zone properties. In this process, the surface is plastically deformed by a rolling element. The roughness, residual stresses and hardness in particular can be positively influenced. An external pressure unit is usually used to generate the forces required for plastic deformation. The acquisition costs associated with the pressure unit and the space required reduce the attractiveness of deep rolling. In this work, the possibility of generating the required forces by exploiting the rotational speed of machining center spindles for processing bores is shown.
