Abstract:The potential to increase the life span of tools applied in cheese cutting machines is of great importance, considering their cost and the risk of fragmented metallic parts of the tool being inserted into the cheese. Such tools are commonly manufactured using stainless steel 405 and are subjected to dynamic loads during their operation, leading to fatigue failure. An efficient method to improve the fatigue properties of such tools is the application of micro-blasting. In this work, for the first time, an exper… Show more
