This work describes the wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) approach used to fabricate parts from wear-resistant steel. The microstructure, crystal structures, and mechanical properties of the resulting samples were thoroughly analyzed. The wear-resistant steel parts demonstrated good forming, no internal defects, good metallurgical bonding, and excellent wear resistance. The metallographic analysis confirmed that the main phase was ferrite. The microhardness of the sample along its cross section was uniform in both horizontal and vertical directions and equals to 464.7HV0.2 and 482.4 HV0.2, respectively. The average values of tensile strength, elongation ratio, and room temperature Charpy shock were equal to 945.3 MPa, 4.3%, and 5 J, respectively.

Two Ni–Cu alloys, Monel K500 and FM60, with various contents of Ti, Mn, Al, Fe and C were deposited in the form of plates on a metal base plate using wire arc additive manufacturing technology. Three deposition speeds have been applied: 300, 400 and 500 mm/min. To modify the as-welded microstructure and properties, the deposited walls/plates have been subjected to two heat treatment procedures: annealing at 1100 °C for 15 min, slow cooling to 610 °C, ageing at this temperature for 8 h and either (i) air cooling to room temperature or (ii) slow cooling to 480 °C, ageing at this temperature for 8 h and air cooling to room temperature. The microstructure characterisation and mechanical properties testing have been conducted for each of the 18 chemistry/processing conditions. The dependences of the precipitate’s parameters (size, number density and chemistry), mechanical properties and wear resistance on the alloy composition, deposition speed and heat treatment have been obtained. In Monel K500, the precipitates were mainly of the TiC/TiCN type, and in FM60, they were of the MnS and TiAlMgO types. Monel K500 has shown higher hardness, strength, toughness and wear resistance in all studied conditions. Ageing at 610 °C improved properties in both alloys following the precipitation of new particles. Ageing at 480 °C could result in a properties loss if the particle coarsening (decrease in number density) took place.

We conducted comparative tests of the wear resistance of metals operating under abrasive conditions. Samples were cut from the working parts of mixer-pneumosuperchargers. The chemical composition and mechanical properties were determined. To compare samples under abrasive wear conditions, we designed and assembled a carousel installation. The principle of its operation is based on mixing the abrasive medium by the samples being studied with a given speed. Wear resistance was evaluated by weight loss by samples after several test cycles. To determine changes in the structure of the metal during abrasive wear, metallographic studies of the samples were carried out before and after the tests. It is shown that the best complex of service and mechanical properties is possessed by 110G13L steel.

The microstructure and wear behavior of a 500 Brinell hardness (HB) grade wear-resistant steel tempered at different temperatures were investigated in this study. The tempering microstructures and wear surface morphologies were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The relationship between mechanical properties and wear resistance was analyzed. The microstructure of the steel mainly consisted of tempered martensite and ferrite. Tempered troosite was obtained when the tempering temperature was over 280 °C. The hardness decreased constantly with the increase of tempering temperature. The same hardness was obtained when tempered at 260 °C and 300 °C, due to the interaction of Fe3C carbides and dislocations. The impact toughness increased first and reached a peak value when tempered at 260 °C. As the tempering temperature was over 260 °C, carbide precipitation would occur along the grain boundaries, which led to temper embrittlement. The best wear resistance was obtained when tempered at 200 °C. At the initiation of the wear test, surface hardness was considered to be the dominant influencing factor on wear resistance. The effect of surface hardness improvement on wear resistance was far greater than the impact toughness. With the wear time extending, the crushed quartz sand particles and the cut-down burs would be new abrasive particles which would cause further wear. Otherwise, the increasing contact temperature would soften the matrix and the adhesive wear turned out to be the dominant wear mechanism, which would result in severe wear.

This paper aims to compare the tribo-mechanical properties and structure–property relationships of a wear resistant cobalt-based alloy produced via two different manufacturing routes, namely sand casting and powder consolidation by hot isostatic pressing (HIPing). The alloy had a nominal wt % composition of Co–33Cr–17.5W–2.5C, which is similar to the composition of commercially available Stellite 20 alloy. The high tungsten and carbon contents provide resistance to severe abrasive and sliding wear. However, the coarse carbide structure of the cast alloy also gives rise to brittleness. Hence this research was conducted to comprehend if the carbide refinement and corresponding changes in the microstructure, caused by changing the processing route to HIPing, could provide additional merits in the tribo-mechanical performance of this alloy. The HIPed alloy possessed a much finer microstructure than the cast alloy. Both alloys had similar hardness, but the impact resistance of the HIPed alloy was an order of magnitude higher than the cast counterpart. Despite similar abrasive and sliding wear resistance of both alloys, their main wear mechanisms were different due to their different carbide morphologies. Brittle fracture of the carbides and ploughing of the matrix were the main wear mechanisms for the cast alloy, whereas ploughing and carbide pullout were the dominant wear mechanisms for the HIPed alloy. The HIPed alloy showed significant improvement in contact fatigue performance, indicating its superior impact and fatigue resistance without compromising the hardness and sliding∕abrasive wear resistance, which makes it suitable for relatively higher stress applications.

Influences of normalizing and tempering temperature on mechanical properties and microstructure of steel casting were investigated in this paper. The results showed that as the normalizing temperature increased, tensile strength increased, while tensile stretch increased slowly at first and decreased at last. Steel casting got best comprehensive mechanical properties after a 970°C normalizing treatment. Normalized at 970°C and tempered at the rage of 500 °C and 550°C, steel casting got best comprehensive mechanical properties. The relation between mechanical properties and temperature was gotten using Matlab Software. The microstructure was ferrite and pearlite after normalizing, and tempered sorbite after high tempering.
