“…Some examples are the regeneration of forging tools and parts of the forging industry [ 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 ], where it was pointed out that the function of the damaged part can be restored very quickly and thus achieve savings in terms of downtime, savings on material and energy, employment etc. Similar principles are emphasized in papers [ 16 , 17 ], on examples of construction machinery parts, in works [ 18 , 19 ] on examples of heavy mining equipment parts, as well as responsible parts of machine constructions, such as gears, whether they are the author’s own research [ 20 , 21 , 22 ] or research by other authors [ 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 ]. In all the mentioned research, it has been shown that hard-facing achieved at least the same characteristics of the applied welds in comparison to the basic materials, while it is often the case that their resistance is even higher.…”
