| Course Descriptions |
| Course | Description |
Advanced Intensity (Level 2) | What factors affect intensity? What must you do to achieve and maintain consistent intensity? How do you perform intensity confirmations (daily or weekly checks)? (Includes Nadcap Audit Preparation) |
| Peening Applications and Benifits | This supplimental course explores the effects of peening of various materials and explains how some products are enhanced with the process. |
Basic Intensity (Level 1) | The basics of what Intensity is in the peening process and why it is important to maintain. This topic will also cover the primary method of measuring intensity levels in standard and unique applications. |
Basics of Media (Level 1) | Description of types and applications of media. Reference to new media specs and in-use media specs. |
Introduction to Shot Peening (Level 1) | The basics to shot peening. Origins are discussed and terms are defined. |
| Media Maintenance and Inspection (Level 2) | Specifications, inspection methods and maintenance of media are covered. (Includes Nadcap Audit Preparation) |
Peening Coverage (Level 1) | This class will discuss the basics of what coverage is and why it is important to monitor. Too little or too much coverage can either minimize the peening benefit or damage the part. |
| Peening Coverage with Masking (Level 2) | Learn the relationship between coverage and fatigue life. How much coverage is enough? This process allows data collection which can be archived for Nadcap review. Some applications call for areas of the part to have no coverage so masking is needed. (Includes Nadcap Audit Preparation) |
| Roto-Flapper Peening | Fundimentals: This class describes how peening can be applied on repaired parts with flapper equipment used with rotary tools. Practical: This hands-on session is for those taking the Flapper Peening Exam where students must demonstrate proper flapper peening techniques outlined in the lecture. |
Saturation Curve Practice (Level 1 and Level 2) | This interactive class helps students generate their own saturation curves. At the end of this session each student should be able to accurately determine the intensity level of a peening application. |
| Wheel Blast Machine Design and Maintenance | This class examines the design of a basic wheel blast machine and common adjustments to obtain desired results for a blast cleaning or peening process. This session also discusses common wear issues and preventative maintenance of wheel blast machines. |
