Abstract
A method for testing thermal fatigue resistance of a shear cutter includes: engaging the shear cutter with a rotating target cylinder; moving the shear cutter along the rotating target cylinder until the shear cutter is heated to a threshold temperature; cooling the shear cutter in response to heating of the shear cutter to the threshold temperature; and repeating the heating and cooling of the shear cutter.
Claims15
A method for testing thermal fatigue resistance of a shear cutter, comprising
- engaging the shear cutter with a rotating target cylinder;

A method for testing thermal fatigue resistance of a shear cutter, comprising
- engaging the shear cutter with a rotating target cylinder;
- moving the shear cutter along the rotating target cylinder without coolant, thereby heating the shear cutter;
- cooling the shear cutter after heating the shear cutter for a period of time;
- and
- repeating the heating and cooling of the shear cutter.
