    Thanks to my friend Tami for explaining the weird results for me. If you are interested on hardening and heat treatment of huge steel parts go check out this video on Beyond the Press th-cam.com/video/_lMw80S6ldc/w-d-xo.html There Tami shows their heat treatment facility at ATA Gears.

    This has likely been said already, but I’m almost certain the ball bearing from the previous video didn’t get red hot at all. What you saw was a frame where the sparks blurred as they shot across the flat surfaces of the press tools and the rounded surface of the bearing reflected the blurred sparks making it appear as if the bearing was hot.

      It would be interesting to aim a laser thermometer at the ball, and see what the temperature is while he crushes it. I’m sure it does indeed heat up, all that friction of the atoms changing place, and breaking molecular bonds, but just now hot? In this video, he said the cold bearings were still cold after he attempted to crush them, but they were super cold to start with. Knowing it’s exact temp as the pressure increases would be interesting.

    Making the balls colder increases their brittleness, but what that really means is its hardness goes way up, but their ability to absorb shock goes way down. so it would be easier to throw a frozen ball bearing at the ground to break it than to just apply force to break it.

    You have a great channel, and all the hard work that goes into all this is very much appreciated . I also replay the exploding bits. What this shows us is how the material is held together atomically. And the energy that is released when subject to force loading.
    I came across an interesting fact the other day. Each atom in a atomic nucleus is held together with a force of 20 lbs. So how many atoms released their 20 lbs at 7:53?
    Another fact I came across was that you could line up 11,000,000 atoms across the point on a pin. So the energy released here is enormous. Kind regards, and greetings from Africa.

    Thanks for your videos.
    I am not a specialist, but I think you should be careful with some materials, when they don't fracture in the press.
    I think that some materials like hardened steel and ceramics can sometimes "store" internal tension, and will be able to violently fracture, after you take them out of the press.

    i think the balls dont explode as easily at higher force, because as the force increases, the ball is making bigger dent in the tool, however bigger dent means bigger area and the stress is distributed more evenly on the ball. Harder tool would definitely make it easier to crush the balls. Making it all out of very strong steel might be expensive, so i suggest using only metal plate at the end of the tool

    It’s converting the pressure into energy as heat.
    That means you are increasing the pressure needed by decreasing the amount of heat in the steel first.
    Lowering the temperature increases the energy needed.
    Because your tools material is close to the same material strength.
    It’s going to fail, unless you have something with higher density.

    2:10 My guess is that by heating it before and froze it a later time, helped the ball to develop a softer mineral lattice from the outside to it's core, allowing the core more time to cool down very slowly, giving it a great inner flexibility compared to its surface that became weaker due to not having enough time nor heat to properly arrange itself like the softer inner core did.
    Yet by putting it in a extremely cold medium, the exterior had the chance to organize its laticce to becomen a hardened (and brittle) mineral lattice. And that's on top of regarding the spehere as the ultimate load bearer shape : A 3D shape that has a 2D surface, allowing load forces on its surface to be distributed evenly. Hence why the first one broke so dramatically, as its entire surface was subjected to a structural failure, again, evenly.
    I might be pushing it a bit, but that's kinda like the method employed on authentic single edge Japanese swords or double bladed like European swords:
    The softer metal acts as a flexible spine on its back or center of the swords, while retaining very hardened edges, creating a synergy that _allows the swords to be flexible enough to not break easily in combat_ yet _hard enough to retain their deadly sharp edge._

    YOU are the strangest human being on TH-cam, and I love it. Keep up the crazy fun. Not everything has to be super serious.
    It is also very interesting.
    But My Goodness, whacky whacky whacky. LOL

    Amazing, and yes many steel alloys increase strength when at lowe temperature.

    You can think of it like this, metals are strong when they are frozen. So long as the impurities are properly removed, it will freeze together at near the same rate, keeping it strong.
    If anyone knows about old sword smithing, you beat the metal when it is hot to shake and help remove impurities. But it is doused in water to cool it quickly and help surface the impurities to remove them; and that can done over and over depending on the desired result, at least a couple of hundred years ago it was. Different rates of cooling also changed results.
    The process is called quenching. There is full quenching and slack quenching. Slack witching is the one done to make a stronger product and, in a way, what you did with the nitrogen because it was already cooled first before you made it cooler.
    The most important factor is what I hit on earlier, the cooling and heating must be uniform, otherwise it will break apart.

  • @loriepaulsen1357
    @loriepaulsen1357 ปีที่แล้ว

    Close to the very end of the video when it's showing in slow motion the ball being crushed, breaking apart and flying outward, the lower cylinder has several lines that appear on it. I was curious to know if this was 1) a distortion of light due to the camera 2) from any kind of temp change or 3) a pressure wave traveling thru the cylinder. My guess is number 3. Can you tell me what it is for certain.
