3 VIRFAC HEAT TREATMENT SURFACE HEAT TREATMENT OF A FORGED CRANKSHAFT T his is a chained process which includes, surface heating by induction followed by a hold phase and water quenching that is simulated with Virfac Heat Treatment module. B ased on a staggered coupling between thermal-metallurgicalmechanical calculations, the simulation leads to the prediction of the phase transformation in the workpiece in addition to the residual stress mapping and the thermal cycle. T he setup and computation take less than 24 hours thanks to respectively the friendly user interface of Virfac and its massively parallel computation capabilities. Virfac results are validated following a comparison with literature. Typical residual stress profile after induction hardening Virfac residual stress profile after induction hardening

4 more about Virfac VIRFAC MACHINING DIRECT STUDY MADE FOR STELIA-AEROSPACE ABOUT STRUCTURAL BEAM OF THE MAIN LANDING GEAR BAY A350 The chaining of a multi-step machining operation of a complex aeronautic structure is easily modeled with Virfac Machining Direct module. Every linear-elastic computation of a step is based on the results of the previous one as initial conditions. Machining Sequence 1 Machining Sequence 2 Machining Sequence 3 Machining Sequence 4 Virfac Machining modules lets the manufacturing engineers check the effect of the clamping system and the machining sequence on distortion. Y-Stress mapping with the clamping system Y-Stress mapping after the removal of the clamping system This simulation is validated by a comparison between the Virfac results and an experimental measurement done on the real workpiece as shown in the following graph. VIRFAC WELDING SCHEDULER INFLUENCE OF WELDING SEQUENCE IN A MULTI-WELD OPERATION The Virfac Welding Scheduler is a key module for the Inherent Strain Method (local-global approach) and in optimizing welding sequences (when a number of welds needs to be performed) which produce the lowest distortions, and therefore it is considered as one of the most competent tool for the engineers in the planning stage of the product. The example above illustrates the capability of the Welding Scheduler. By changing the welding sequence it can be seen that the overall distortion is reduced. Therefore by utilizing an efficient welding sequence the residual distortions in the part can be decreased. The added advantage of the Welding Scheduler is that it not only cuts down the work for the engineer but also does it at an extremely quick pace.
