Influence of operating parameters on morphology of laser hardened surfaces by Maharjan, Niroj, Zhou, Wei, Zhou, Yu, Wu, Naien

“…Laser transformation hardening is an attractive heat treatment technology which can be used to enhance the surface properties of highly stressed components such as cams, gears, and bearings without altering its bulk properties. The highly intense laser beam rapidly heats up the irradiated surface above its austenitization temperature which cools down instantaneously (self-quenching) as the laser moves away from the spot producing a hardened surface. …”
