Electron beam surface hardening of 42CrMo4 steel

  • 1. Valmet Aviation Industries, Linnavuori (Finland). Engine Maintenance

Description

A study is reported in this paper which aims to find the proper parameters of an electron beam machine for using electron beam (EB) hardening on 42CrMo4 steel. Extended service life for engineering components depends on hard, wear resistant surfaces combined with tough base materials. EB hardening is particularly suitable to local treatment of complex components. Although surface hardening of 42CrMo4 steel was successful, careful optimization of process parameters and the hardened layer are required. (UK)
