Abstract

This study contributes directly to the understanding of the causative agent of loss of carbon steel wire during the heat treatment (phenomenon called decarburization). This carbon loss disqualifies the material for your applications originally envisaged, as with mechanical reduction of the amount of the chemical element carbon steel becomes less resistant to traction and less hard what would prevent your use for various applications mechanics. This research aim is to show desirability method application related to decarburization and hardness, in SAE 51B35 drawn steel wires. Data were generated from application of design of experiments methodology (by means of the Minitab Statistical Software) and results revealed that all variables considered in study have significant influence. Statistic modeling was carried out by means of application of multiple linear regression method which allowed obtaining models which represent properly the process itself. Results of response variables decarburization and hardness were submitted to desirability method application and the process was optimized at the best adjust condition of entry variables in relation to their specifications.
