Russian Engineering Research Aims and scope

Abstract

The hardening of 4X5MΦC die steel by a powerful fiber laser is considered. It is found that the hardness of the surface layer after laser treatment is 62–64 HRC and the depth of the hardened layer is 1 mm. Ultrafine structure such as a white layer is formed at the surface.
