Formation of the Properties of the Working Surfaces of Important Parts by Plasma Surfacing and Surface Heat Treatment by a Reversed-Polarity Current

详细

The properties of surface layers can be formed by changing their structure using heat treatment and their composition and structure via the supply of an additional material to a treatment zone. The structural and phase transformations in the near-surface layer are determined by the thermal cycle in a treatment zone. To control the heating spot area at a uniform energy distribution and a high energy concentration is a challenging problem for surface heat treatment and deposition (surfacing). The results of studying plasma surface heat treatment and surfacing with a reversed-polarity current are presented. The contribution of the heat transfer from nonstationary cathode spots to an article during plasma surface treatment using a reversed-polarity current is separated. The advantages of surface heat treatment of medium- and high-alloy steels and the deposition of similar and dissimilar alloys using a reversed-polarity current constricted direct arc are presented.
