Steel in Translation Aims and scope

Abstract

This work presents the results of experimental investigations of the influence of laser radiation on surface roughness of grade U8 carbon tool steel blanking dies. As shown by the tests, after meltback-free laser quenching standard roughness characteristics Ra, Rz, and Rmax change within the limit of one class. It is established that the minimal sliding friction coefficient is reached at integral roughness indicator Δ = 0.10–0.01. The tests confirm that the lowest wear also corresponds to these values of Δ.
