Abstract:The effect of heat treatment process on the microstructure and hardness of train wheel material was investigated. The railway wheel material was prepared by a casting process from used train wheel and followed by heat treatment processes namely normalizing, flame hardening, and tempering. The normalizing process at a temperature of 850 °C with a holding time of 120 minutes followed by air cooling has resulted in hardness of 24 HRC. The flame hardening process at a temperature of 800 °C with a holding time of 1… Show more
