Effect of the concentrated heat flow treatment on the structure and the antiwear properties of cast iron
Journal Title: Archiwum Odlewnictwa - Year 2009, Vol 9, Issue 2
Abstract
The influence of modes of surface fusion by electric arc plasma (GTAW method) on the hardness and wear-resistance of plain cast iron was studied. A possible mechanism of structural rearrangement in the processed material during the friction was analyzed. This mechanism is determined by specific behaviour of hardened martensitic structure under dynamic load. This martensitic structure forms a metal basis of cementite eutectic under conditions of fast crystallisation.

Comparison of Energy Consumption in the Classical (PID) and Fuzzy Control of Foundry Resistance Furnace
Foundry resistance furnaces are thermal devices with a relatively large time delay in their response to a change in power parameters. Commonly used in automation classical PID controllers do not meet the requirements of...
Plastic properties of cold-deformed ironbased sintered materials
Cold plastic forming of sintered metal powders has limited practical application because of, among others, the deformation degree and initial porosity of preforms. Cold forming is combined with a very drastic drop of pla...
