Research Concerning the Influence of Laser Cladding on the Operating Characteristics of the Surface Layers Obtained from High-Speed Steel Powder

Abstract

The paper presents the corrosion behavior of laser cladding layers in 0.5 M NaCl along with a durability test, compared with samples made of clasically hardened HS6-5-2 steel. The higher characteristics of the laser deposited layers have been underlined while recommending the procedure of parts highly required to wear and corrosion.
