Prøvehærdning
Prøvehærdning, a Danish term, translates to "trial hardening" or "test hardening" in English. It refers to a process used in materials science and engineering, particularly in the context of heat treatment of metals. The primary purpose of prøvehærdning is to determine the optimal conditions for achieving a desired hardness in a material without causing detrimental effects like cracking or excessive brittleness.
This typically involves treating small test samples of the material under various controlled parameters. These parameters
The information gained from prøvehærdning is crucial for developing efficient and reliable heat treatment procedures for
