Modern thermal and thermochemical treatment of steels is a rapidly growing research area.
Thermochemical processes are researched, designed, optimized, and controlled by …

The article presents the optimisation of the organisation of the vacuum carburising process
in terms of the number and duration of “boost”/“diffusion” stages. The processes of two-and …

The analysis of distortions, hardness level and microstructure of the surface layers of the
toothed gears after low pressure carburizing and high pressure gas quenching is presented …

Compared with the traditional atmospheric carburization, low-pressure carburization has the
benefits of producing no surface oxidation and leaving fine, uniformly dispersed carbides in …

This paper presents a comparison of the deformations and residual stresses in gear wheels
after vacuum carburizing process with quenching in high-pressure nitrogen and oil. The …

This paper presents the results of a study aimed at determining the residual stress which
results from develo** the surface layer by low-pressure and conventional carburizing and …

A variety of vacuum carburizing methods with preliminary nitriding at the stage of heating the
charge for carburizing aim at limiting primary austenite grain growth during the process. In …

The variety of vacuum carburizing with prenitriding (PreNitLPC® technology) consists in
metering ammonia in the stage of charge heating for carburizing to reduce grain growth in …

The purpose of modern surface hardening technology is obtaining reproducible, precisely
planned parameters of the carburized layer, minimizing the negative phenomena that result …

The aim of the experiment described in the paper was to determine the effect of selected
conditions of abrasive machining on the size and distribution of microhardness and residual …
