Abstract

New three- and four-cycle experimental cementation regimes for a layer thickness of up to 4.0 mm in an atmosphere of natural gas with air additives have been developed. Rational schemes for adding air to the atmosphere of methane for carburizing in shaft furnaces at different thicknesses of the hardened layer have been determined. Industrial testing of new modes has shown the possibility of reducing the total duration of the cementation process by 25%; significant reduction in energy consumption for heating furnaces and reduction of natural gas consumption for one carburizing mode by 35%.
