A study has been undertaken to investigate which wear process is primarily responsible for restricting lifetime of cutting knives in wood processing industry. Therefore, three different cold work tool steels (Cr-content, 8 wt.%, C-content, 0.5-1.1 wt.%) have been analysed regarding their ...
Another thing to keep in mind is that as the layer count goes up, and the layers become thinner, there is less distance required for diffusion between the two steels. Therefore, the steel becomes more homogenous as the layer count increases. Eventually, if the layer count is high enou...
