The aim of this work was to examine the special features governing the formation of deposited beads, their structure, and properties in various methods of laser powder surfacing of industrial alloys of the Ni-Cr-B-Si system, hard alloys, and cast iron on substrates made of various materials. Surfacing was carried out using a continuous CO//2 laser at a radiation power of P equals 0. 5-4kW and
... [Show full abstract] speed v equals 0. 4-m/min. Investigations were made into the processes of producing coatings in melting deposited powder paste or sprayed gas-thermal layers, as well as into surfacing with the feed of filler powder into the melting zone under the effect of laser radiation.
