This study deals with the influence of laser hardening for a carbon steel AISI 1045 on machinability in turning. Turning test was conducted for the purpose to clarify the influence of laser hardening for steel surface on the chip controllability and surface roughness. In turning laser hardened steel, continuous chip is broken in the laser hardened zone during cutting due to higher brittleness. The broken chips have spiral form and their length is approximately equal to those generated by less than 10 revolution cutting. The surface roughness shows slightly lower compared with non-laser hardened steel.

This study introduces a newly developed cladding device, through printing AISI 1045 carbon steel as single and double layers onto American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) H13 tool steel plate. In this study, the mechanical and tribological characteristics of single and double layers were experimentally investigated. Both layers were polished first and then subjected to ultrasonic nanocrystal surface modification (UNSM) treatment to improve the mechanical and tribological characteristics. Surface roughness, surface hardness and depth profile measurements, and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis of the polished and UNSM-treated layers were carried out. After tribological tests, the wear tracks of both layers were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) along with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The surface roughness (Ra and Rz) of the single and double UNSM-treated layers was reduced 74.6% and 85.9% compared to those of both the as-received layers, respectively. In addition, the surface hardness of the single and double layers was dramatically increased, by approximately 23.6% and 23.4% after UNSM treatment, respectively. There was no significant reduction in friction coefficient of both the UNSM-treated layers, but the wear resistance of the single and double UNSM-treated layers was enhanced by approximately 9.4% and 19.3% compared to the single and double polished layers, respectively. It can be concluded that UNSM treatment was capable of improving the mechanical and tribological characteristics of both layers. The newly developed cladding device can be used as an alternative additive manufacturing (AM) method, but efforts and upgrades need to progress in order to increase the productivity of the device and also improve the quality of the layers.

Burnishing improves fatigue strength, surface hardness and decrease surface roughness of metal because this process transforms tensile residual stresses into compressive residual stresses. Roller burnishing tool is used in the present work on low carbon steel (AISI 1008) specimens. In this work, different experiments were used to study the influence of feed parameter and speed parameter in burnishing process on fatigue strength, surface roughness and surface hardness of low carbon steel (AISI 1008) specimens. The first parameter used is feed values which were (0.6, 0.8, and 1) mm at constant speed (370) rpm, while the second parameter used is speed at values (540, 800 and 1200) rpm and at constant feed (1) mm. The results of the fatigue test showed that improvement in fatigue limit, where the highest fatigue limit was obtained at (1mm feed, 1200rpm speed) in burnishing process which was (169 Mpa). The hardness results, showed increasing feed and speed values lead to increasing the hardness. The burnishing process reduces surface roughness by producing accurate and better surface finish. The best surface fineness of metal at (1mm feed and 1200 rpm speed) was 0.11 μm.

Residual stresses levels and their distributions in thin films have an important effect on their mechanical properties. The non-destructive analysis by pseudo-grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXRD) allows us to define residual stresses gradients as a function of thin film depth. In case of pseudo-GXRD, we must take into account the effects due to surface roughness on residual stress analysis. We have investigated firstly a set of carbon steel specimens with different surface roughness (RZ varies from 4.2µm to 9.5µm) obtained by grinding. All specimens were tempered to eliminate the residual stresses due to machining. With K radiation of Chromium, Bragg peak positions were determined with various incidence angles  (varies from 1° to 78°) for each specimen. Secondly, a carbon steel specimen containing 4 zones with different surface roughness was loaded elastically in tension, pseudo-GIXRD has used for stress analysis on the loaded specimen with various incidence angles. The peak shifts due to the surface roughness were studied as function of different roughness and different incidence angles. The stress relaxation due to surface roughness was then studied.
