The Tribological Properties of Laser Hardened Steel 42CrMo4 / Właściwości Tribologiczne Stali 42Crmo4 Hartowanej Laserowo

Abstract

The paper presents results of research tribological properties laser hardened steel 42CrMo4. Parameter influencing on the quality of the hardened surface was laser head speed. The study was conducted on friction tester pin-on-disc type T-11, and a counter sample disc was silicate. Parameter determining the quality of the surface layer is the intensity of wear. Based on the results we obtain information about the laser head speed to temper steel 42CrMo4 so as to maintain a high resistance to wear.
