Feasibility of using laser enabled net shaping to manufacture WC-Fe alloys

Author: Molobi, E ; Sacks, N ; Theron, Maritha Date: Oct 2018 Laser Enabled Net Shaping technology in the manufacture of cemented tungsten carbides is challenging and many scientific gaps still need to be addressed to ensure commercial viability. In this study the feasibility of using LENS® to produce ... Read more
Framework for cemented tungsten carbide drill bit prototype fabrication using laser engineered net shaping

Author: Davoren, B ; Sacks, N ; Theron, Maritha Date: Nov 2021 The interest in additive manufacturing and its unique applications has increased significantly over recent years. This has resulted in the need for alloys and composites to be optimized for these processes. In this study a multiphase parameter ... Read more
Improvement of hardness of aluminium AA1200 by laser surface alloying

Author: Mabhali, Luyolo AB ; Pityana, Sisa L ; Sacks, N Date: Jul 2010 Aluminium is vastly used in industry due to its low cost, light weight and excellent workability, but lacks in wear resistance and hardness. Laser alloying is used to improve the surface properties such as hardness by modifying the composition ... Read more
Improvement of the surface properties of aluminium by the formation of intermetallic phases and metal matrix composites during laser surface alloying

Author: Mabhali, Luyolo AB ; Pityana, Sisa L ; Sacks, N Date: May 2011 Aluminium is widely used in industry due to its low cost, light weight and excellent workability, but is lacking in wear resistance and hardness. Laser alloying is used to improve the surface properties, such as hardness, by modifying the ... Read more
Laser alloying of AI with mixed Ni, Ti and SiC powders

Author: Mabhali, Luyolo AB ; Pityana, Sisa L ; Sacks, N Date: Mar 2010 Laser alloying of aluminium AA1200 was performed with a 4.4kW Rofin Sinar Nd:YAG laser to improve the surface hardness. Alloying was carried out by depositing Ni, Ti and SiC powders of different weight ratios on the aluminum substrate. The ... Read more
