Popis: The paper is devoted to the study of resistance of medium alloy tool steels after laser-plasma cementation. The authors propose a method of increasing abrasive resistance by means of the combined effect of DC electric arc of reverse polarity and laser radiation. The increased concentration of carbon in the near-surface layer is provided by the erosion of the carbon electrode and melting due to the combined energy effect of laser radiation and electric arc. The formation regularities of the diffusion hardened layer are established. The modes of laser-plasma cementation and test results of the studied materials are presented. The reasons of resistance increase are revealed. The mechanical characteristics of the hardened surface layer are shown. The influence of the energy regimes of the technological process on the depth of the diffusion hardened layer is given.
