MACRO EXAMINATION

Fig 1: CASE MICROSTRUCTURE

Fig 2: Case microstructure @1000x Fig 3: Core microstructure @ 1000x

The core consists of proeutectoid ferrite with a Widmanstaetten morphology due to the rapid rate of phase
transformation during cooling plus low carbon martensite.This is a tough microstructure for the core of such a
workpiece.
