High-speed steels (HSSs) are frequently utilized as cutting tools and wear-resistant
components for a variety of applications because of their exceptional hot hardness and …

Laser surface hardening process is one of the new technologies for improving the surface of
metals, especially steels, which in recent decades has received a lot of attention. This paper …

Powder bed preheating is a promising development in selective laser melting (SLM), mainly
applied to avoid large thermal stresses in the material. This study analyses the effect of in …

The study is aimed to analyse the comparative behaviour of the high-temperature abrasive
wear of H13 steel surfaces modified by laser melting and cladding with Stellite 6 and Stellite …

While metal additive manufacturing has seen significant growth in recent years, the surfaces
produced often need post-processing to improve surface finish, mitigate residual stresses …

The H13 steel was formed by selective laser melting process, and the as-deposited samples
were cryogenically treated at-196° C and tempered at a low temperature of 200° C …

In the present study, laser cladding of AISI H13 tool steel powder has been undertaken on
hardened and tempered AISI H13 tool steel components using a 6 kW fiber coupled diode …

AISI H13 hot work tool steels were subjected to shallow and deep cryogenic treatment. One
set of the samples was single tempered, while the other set was double tempered. Cooling …

Extreme high-speed laser (EHLA) cladding, which refers to metal deposition at speeds> 20
m/min, is the optimization for conventional laser cladding. Improving the surface properties …

The present study reports the effect of laser parameters on the microstructure, and
consequently, the wear resistance of laser surface engineered (hardening and melting) AISI …
