Objective: The aim the study was to investigate the impact of the shot peening process on the condition of the surface layer and biological properties of titanium alloy produced by means of the Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) method.

Material And Methods: Specimens were prepared by the EOSINT M280 metal sintering laser system. The surfaces were subjected to the shot peening process using three different media, i.e. steel shot, nutshell granules and ceramic beads, after which they were subjected to profilometric analysis, scanning electron microscopic (SEM) observations and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) tests, as well as to assessment of biological compatibility in terms of cytotoxicity (SH-SY5Y cell lines).

Results: The general results obtained from the tests indicate satisfactory biocompatibility of the examined surfaces and that the impact of the shot peening process on the titanium alloy cytotoxicity is acceptable.

Conclusions: The lowest cytotoxicity was demonstrated by the surfaces modified by ceramic beads than the nutshells and the biggest steel shot correspondingly. Moreover, the shot peening process carried out by means of CrNi steel and ceramic shot caused the reduction of surface roughness when, for the surface processing by means of nutshell granules, the increase of surface roughness was observed compared with the unmodified surface of titanium alloy samples.

The microstructure, hardness, residual stress, and friction and wear properties of 25CrNi2MoV steel with different particle diameters during shot peening strengthening were studied. Studies have shown that a grain refinement layer appeared on the surface of the material after shot peening. The shot peening intensity increased with increasing particle diameter; a greater shot peening intensity corresponded to a greater surface hardness of the material, the maximum hardness was 592 HV0.

This work systematically investigated the effect of dual shot peening (DSP) and conventional shot peening (CSP) on the microstructure, residual stress and wear performance of the CNT/Al-Cu-Mg composites. The results indicated that compared with CSP, DSP effectively reduced surface roughness (Rz) from 31.30 to 12.

Surface nanoengineering can significantly improve the mechanical properties and performance of metals, such as strength, hardness, fatigue, wear resistance, . In this work, we tailored the surface microstructure of GCr15 bearing steel within a thickness of approximately 800 μm using room temperature ultrasonic shot peening (USP) technology. Microstructure characterization studies reveal the formation of gradient nanosized spheroidal carbides and lath-shaped nano-martensite in the GCr15 bearing steel during the USP process.

The number of easily destroyed parts with high value is increasing in industry, and green remanufacture engineering is now mainstream in this new and expanding industrial field. Equal-additive-subtractive manufacturing, as a new technology that combines strengthening technology, additive manufacturing, and machining technology has great potential for development in the area of remanufacturing. Aiming at the damage characteristics of a plunger rod, this paper carries out a study about the repair technology by equal-additive-subtractive manufacturing of laser-directed energy deposition and shot peening.

We conducted a study on the surface compound modification of shot peening and pure carbon DLC coating to simultaneously meet the requirements of wear resistance and fatigue resistance of spline structure. The effects of surface compound modification were investigated on the surface morphology, residual stress profile, microstructure, and nano-indentation hardness of 16Cr3NiWMovNbE gear steel, and conducted a comparative study on fatigue performance. The results show that the surface compound modification inherits the surface morphology and compressive residual stress gradient of shot peening, while the surface residual stress is slightly smaller than that of shot peening.
