| SP230 FL |
Flapper Peening Theory and Applications Pete Bailey Dave Barkley |
Flapper Peening aids in spot repair (re-peening) and small part peening
without requiring a blast cabinet or having to send a part back out to a job shop. This class offers
the history and current practices of Flapper Peening. Procedure, intensity, coverage, standards and
equipment are all covered in this presentation. A supplemental hands-on class is also offered
(see schedule) for those willing to take an extended look into this emerging peening technology. A FAA certification exam is offered for this class but candidates must also attend and pass the "Flapper Peening Practical" course. |
|
| SP231 FL |
Flapper Peening Lab and Practical Pete Bailey Dave Barkley |
This is a supplemental class to the "Flapper Peening Theory and
Applications" course. This class is hands-on and students can test their technique by generating
a saturation curve via Flapper Peening. Since testing can be time consuming, students taking the
Flapper Peening exam have preferential treatment with the equipment. Flapper Peening
demonstrations will also be available during Trade Show breaks on Wednesday. A FAA certification exam is offered for this class but candidates must also attend and pass the "Flapper Peening Theory and Applications" course. |

| SP101 | Ultrasonically Activated Spot Peening: Principles
and Applications
Sylvain Forgues |
In this class, the principles of Ultrasonically Activated Shot Peening will be reviewed along with several production and repair applications illustrating how the technique can lower costs and shorten cycle times. Special applications such as disk slots and irregular holes will be discussed and compressive residual stress distributions, surface finish and fatigue lives will be compared with conventional peening. | |
| SP102 | Laser Peening Jim Harrison |
Laser peening can impart a compressive stress about twice as deep as conventional shot peening. This is very important in rotating jet engine parts for FOD control. Learn about the space age technology used for critical peening applications. | |
| SP103 | Peening of Carburized Gears Michele Bandini |
Starting from a general overview on shot peening, this presentation is a practical tool to guide you through the steps of properly evaluating, selecting and applying the best peening parameters for each peening application. | |
| SP104 | New Developments in Peening & Cleaning
Kumar Balan |
Though the threat of overseas production is real, North American manufacturing continues to innovate. Such manufacturers utilize their current knowledge of cleaning and peening techniques, recognize their benefits and use them in new applications. The need to be cost competitive has inspired blast equipment manufacturers to explore newer material technology to solve traditional issues such as noise, leakage etc. This discussion will focus on how traditional cleaning and peening machines are utilized for relatively non-traditional applications. Also exemplified is the manner in which equipment manufacturers have modified/modernized existing technology to adapt to this changing requirement. | |
| SP105 | Ultrasonic Impact Technology
Dan Spinner |
Ultrasonic Impact Technology (also known as UIT) can impart compressive stresses to depths (+0.120”) greater than twice the maximum of shot peening (~0.060”) and stress relieve up to 0.60” deep. By selection of the proper indenters, treatment can be highly focused in small areas such as the HAZ of welds, or across complete component surfaces such as brake rotors, crank shafts and cam shafts, giving fatigue life strength up to 5 times that of conventional shot peening. The technology has also given superior performance in SCC in stainless steels and exfoliation of aluminum aerospace components. | |
| Classes marked FL are recommended as exam preparation for flapper peening. Any persons interested in flapper certification must attend "Flapper Peening Practice / Practical" and demonstrate proficiency to the instructor prior to sitting for the examination. | |||

| AT104 | Shot Peen Forming of Wing Skins Jim Harrison |
Wing skins can be formed to have a curved surface. Like with an Almen strip, Peen forming involves blasting a stream of shot at the metal surface with each piece of shot acting as a tiny peening hammer but unlike most other forming methods, all surface stresses generated by peen forming are compressive - counter-balancing the tensile forces acting on the lower surface of the wing while the plane is in flight. | |
