Cladding of Wear-Resistant Layers in Metallurgy and Engineering

Abstract

The paper presents the application of weld layers used in renovations of functional surfaces of components that are exposed to several tribodegradation factors in operation of metallurgical and engineering industries. Surfaces of selected components are renovated using arc welding processes, namely: (MMAW) Manual Metal Arc Welding, (SAW) Submerged Arc Welding methods, (GMAW) Gas metal arc welding and (FCAW) Flux cored wire metal arc welding without gas shield. Claddings were made always three-layered directly on the surfaces of renovated components using dedicated cladding machines in operations and laboratory conditions respectively. Their quality was assessed using non-destructive tests, namely (VT) visual testing by STN EN ISO 17637 and (UT) Ultrasonic testing STN EN ISO 11666. Within the destructive tests the quality of claddings was evaluated using the metallographic analysis conducted on a light microscope Olympus BX and electron microscope Jeol where the impact of mixing the weld metal as well as heat treatment after cladding on the final structure of claddings was observed. Using the Shimadzu HMV 2 device the microhardness of cladding layers was evaluated on metallographic samples by STN EN ISO 9015-2. In laboratory conditions the resistance of cladding layers to abrasive wear was verified on the device Di-1. Experimental testing of the claddings confirmed that the selected additives and cladding parameters witting individual technology were chosen correctly as in cladding layers no presence of internal defects was observed.

“…There are a number of ways to mitigate problems connected with abrasive and other types of severe wear. Arc weld surfacing [ 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ] is an effective method to reduce wear losses. Wear resistant materials may be also used to produce the entire working unit [ 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 ].…”

Progressive CMT Cladding for Renovation of Casting Mold

“…The goal of the research is the renovation of surface which include arc cladding methods and are nowadays very actual. [6][7][8][9] Optimization of arc processes are oriented to reduce the heat input underlayer. [10][11][12][13] To reduce the number of defects and beginning of nucleation unwanted phases such as heterogenic areas.…”
