Abstract:

Ni60AA and DZ-WC-12Co cemented carbide layer was prepared on 45 steel by high-speed flame spraying, then remelted by 5KW continuous wave CO2 laser. The micro-structure was analyzed by Olympus GX51 .micro hardness and the micro hardness was measured by HXY-1000TAY micro hardness meter. The wear resistant of coating was tested by MM-W1B vertical universal testing machine. The results showed that laser melting significantly eliminate the carbide layer unmelted carbide particles, holes and cracks and other defects, the micro-structure is finer and more uniform. After laser re-melted, the average micro hardness of hard alloy layer is up to 647HV, which is five times of the matrix. Under the experimental conditions, the friction coefficient of hard alloy layer drops from 0.1373 to 0.0948 by 31%.The wear-resistance of cemented carbide layer is improved by laser melting.
