Materials Testing for the Metal Forming Industry

By Klaus Pöhlandt

Subjects: Structural control (Engineering), Surfaces (Physics), Materials, testing

Description: The book is the first systematic treatment of materials testing for the special demands of the metal forming industry. Testing methods for the forming behavior of metals as well as for the service properties of workpieces after metal forming and for metal forming tool materials are described. A list of all ASTM, ISO and Euronorm standards which are of importance for the subject of the book is included. Chapters 1-6 are a revised translation of the author's German book "Werkstoffprüfung für die Umformtechnik", whereby the DIN standards have been replaced by the corresponding ASTM standards as far as possible. In addition, some useful ISO, Euronorm and DIN standards have been cited.
