Heat Treatment with the Use of Highly Concentrated Energy Sources

Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The structure, microhardness, and dimensions of the hardened zones obtained in laser heat treatment depend upon the density of the laser radiation power and the rate of movement of the specimen relative to the beam while in laser alloying with nitrogen they depend upon the quantity of impregnating coating.

     
  2. 2.

    The maximum microhardness of the zones of fusion of 11Kh12N2V2MF steel obtained as the result of laser heat treatment is H 710 and H 540 in continuous and pulsed radiation, respectively.

     
  3. 3.

    In laser alloying of 11Kh12N2V2MF steel with nitrogen the maximum microhardness of the zones of fusion with the use of continuous and pulsed radiation sources is H 900 and H 715, respectively.

     
  4. 4.

    To obtain the maximum microhardness and thickness of the hardened layers on 11Kh12N2V2MF steel the use in laser alloying with nitrogen of continuous radiation with a power of P>2.5 kW with application of a carbamide coating of 600 g/m2 is recommended.
