“…Apart from the opportunity of acquirement the components with enhanced combinations of properties, it is also possible to reduce cost of their production. It is very common, that high final properties, as hardness, high corrosion or wear resistance, are demanded only on the working surface of the castings, so manufacturing whole casting from material which meet these requirements seems not to be reasonable, because such components are usually made from expensive and hard to reach materials [1][2][3][4][5]. Therefore, the concept of the researches uses existing layered casting technology, based on the mould cavity preparation method with a monolithic insert [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13], to obtain a bimetallic casting in system: working layer made of corrosion-resistant steel, from the high-chromium group X46Cr13 grade with a grey cast iron EN-GJL-HB 255 base part.…”
