Investigation of Surface Residual Stress for Medium Carbon Steel Quenched by YAG Laser with Extended Cycloidal Motion

This study investigated the surface residual stress for AISI 1045 steel quenched by a YAG laser. A coaxial laser spindle was installed on a CNC machine for the experiment. The laser motion was arranged to follow the path of an extended cycloid which widened the quenching area on the steel surface. B...
