IDENTIFICATION OF A TECHNOLOGY TO OBTAIN DAMASCUS STEEL WORKPIECES

Ioan SURUGIU, Laurențiu SLĂTINEANU

Abstract


Damascus steel is a composite metallic material made using different welding processes by forging some steel components with different chemical compositions at high temperatures. These steels can have high hardness, ensuring good wear behavior and toughness, which contributes to a decrease in the brittleness typical of ordinary hard steels. The imposed decision technique was used to select a manufacturing technology for Damascus steel workpieces. For the conditions considered, it was found that it is more convenient to manufacture Damascus steel workpieces starting from steel strips with different carbon contents. The application of this technology allowed the manufacture of Damascus steel workpieces.
