Abstract
The article presents the study of the effect of laser treatment on the microhardness of WC-Cu coatings applied by electro spark deposition. Observations of friction resistance test results allowed the evaluation of the coatings after laser treatment. The studies were conducted using WC-Cu electrodes, produced by sintering of nanostructural powders. The anti-wear coatings were electro-spark deposited over C45 carbon steel by means of EIL-8A, while the laser processing was performed by electro coats applied using a Nd:YAG, BLS720. Model tests were carried on test mechanical seals for rings made of SiC and WC-Cu coatings before and after laser treatment.
