Foreword
This publication provides an overview of the range of material
solutions that are used at Schaeffler, especially in the Industrial
Division, as a widely applied standard or in the form of a specific
special solution.
The overview serves as an initial reference for Business Units,
Sectors, particularly their Application Engineering and Product Design
functions, External Sales, Commercial functions and those interested
in getting more intensively involved in the field of materials technology.
This overview should be regarded as a summary which can be used to
make qualitative comparisons and is in no way a substitute for specific
application support service provided by the specialist department.
The information contained on the following pages is not intended
to generate a definitive image of a material or its heat treatment.
The aim of this publication is rather to present characteristics,
advantages and disadvantages as a means of illustrating the technical
facets of individual solutions in comparison with each other.
We hope that you enjoy reading this compact reference work and,
above all, that it provides you with additional information, helps in your
day-to-day work and provides an introduction to materials technology
at Schaeffler.
Comparison of standard solutions
Classification of material and heat treatment according to performance capability under various requirements.
In technical comparison with reference: 1) The cost-effectiveness only provides an initial qualitative indication,
+++ Excellent
while the costs and prices are essentially dependent on the product and quantity.
++ Significantly better 2)
+ Better Stress peaks in the region of the static load carrying capacity.
3)
Identical The classification can differ depending on the medium and the temperature.
Worse 4) With standard heat treatment (W230),
Significantly worse ++ With heat treatment for dimensional stabilisation (W230S, secondary hardening).
In price comparison with reference:
Slightly more expensive
More expensive
