Laser-based hybrid process for machining hardened steels

Laser-based hybrid process for machining hardened steels

Cost-effective machining of hardened steel (>60 HRC) components such as a large wind turbine bearing poses a significant challenge. This thesis investigates a new laser tempering based hybrid turning approach to machine hardened AISI 52100 steel parts more efficiently and cost effectively. The ap...
