After the bent pipe is heat treated with a high-frequency induction heating power supply, how to take samples for quality inspection?

The diameter of the bent pipe is 1219mm, the wall thickness is 22mm, and the bending radius is 6D. It is heated and bent by a high-frequency induction heating power supply. The bent pipe is heat treated using a high-frequency heating power supply. The heating temperature during hot bending is 950-1000°C, the extrusion speed is 25-30mm.min-1, and water spraying is used for cooling after bending. The tempering process of the bent pipe is 580-630℃, and it is air-cooled after insulation.

The mechanical properties of the bent pipe after heat treatment are sampled as follows:

(1) Tensile specimen. Take tensile specimens (longitudinal and transverse) from the straight pipe section of the bent pipe, the outer arc side of the left transition zone, the outer arc side of the right transition zone, the inner arc side, the outer arc side, and the neutral zone pipe body. Take transverse tensile specimens at the welded joints of the straight pipe section and the curved section. 

(2) Impact specimen. Respectively in the straight pipe section weld and heat affected zone, left transition zone outer arc side pipe body, right transition zone outer arc side pipe body, inner arc side pipe body, outer arc side pipe body, curved section weld and heat affected zone, Take impact samples from the pipe body and other places in the neutral zone. The impact specimen is a Charpy V-notch specimen of 10 mm × 10 mm × 55 mm.

Sampling is the first and most important step in checking the heat treatment quality of workpieces. It is directly related to the correctness of the inspection results. If you don’t understand anything about the above content, you can read more books on heat treatment. I believe you will gain a lot.
