Improvement of Low Carbon Steel ST37-2 by Laser Surface Alloying with Metallic Powders

Article Preview

Abstract:

Local surface alloying of metallic materials by laser is an issue of interest in the scientific world and materials engineering. Laser surface alloying technology allows diffusion of alloying elements which add special features into the surface of a base material with modest properties but a low price. This paper presents the results of experimental research regarding the process of alloying on steel ST37-2 and the effects obtained after laser surface alloying.
