Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for producing a surface of a base material, wherein the base material has spheroidal graphite cast iron, wherein firstly a partial surface is located, in a further step a two-ply buffer layer is used by means of TIG welding with the welding additive NiFe, wherein in a further step a fill layer is applied to the buffer layer, wherein the MIG welding method is used in conjunction with NiFe-2 in accordance with EN ISO 107 as welding additive material.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 .- 13 . (canceled) 14 . A method for producing a surface of a base material, wherein the base material comprises cast iron, the method comprising: localizing a partial surface only on the surface of the one base material, producing a first buffer layer on the partial surface, wherein a buffer welding process is used in conjunction with a buffer welding additive, wherein welding parameters are selected such that a heat input into the base material is low, producing a fill layer on the buffer layer, wherein a MAG welding process is used, wherein a NiFe welding filler material is used, wherein no preheating is performed, wherein a MIG welding process is employed during production of the buffer layer, and a welding additive is used which comprises substantially 65% by weight of Ni and substantially 30% by weight of Fe, wherein, during production of the fill layer, a welding additive is used which comprises substantially 55% by weight of Ni and substantially 30% by weight of Fe. 15 . The method as claimed in claim 14 , wherein argon is used during the production of the buffer layer; wherein a mixture of argon and CO2 is used during the production of the fill layer. 16 . The method as claimed in claim 14 , wherein a WIG welding process is employed as buffer welding process, and both during the buffer welding process and during the MAG welding process a welding additive is used which comprises substantially 55% by weight of Ni and substantially 30% by weight of Fe. 17 . The method as claimed in claim 14 , wherein the base material comprises spheroidal graphite cast iron. 18 . The method as claimed in claim 14 , wherein the partial surface has an indentation. 19 . The method as claimed in claim 14 , wherein a WIG welding process is employed as buffer welding process. 20 . The method as claimed in claim 19 , wherein NiFe welding additive is used as welding additive. 21 . The method as claimed in claim 14 , wherein the MIG welding process is employed as buffer welding process. 22 . The method as claimed in claim 21 , wherein NiFe welding additive is used as welding additive. 23 . The method as claimed in claim 14 , wherein a second buffer layer is applied prior to production of the fill layer. 24 . The method as claimed in claim 14 , wherein production of the surface takes place at temperatures below 100° C. 25 . A component for a turbomachine, produced by a method as claimed in claim 14 . 26 . The method as claimed in claim 14 , wherein the NiFe welding filler material comprises a NiFe welding additive. 27 . The method as claimed in claim 26 , wherein the NiFe welding additive comprises a NiFe-2 type in accordance with EN ISO 1071. 28 . The method as claimed in claim 20 , wherein the NiFe welding additive comprises NiFe-2 type in accordance with EN ISO 1071. 29 . The method as claimed in claim 22 , wherein the NiFe welding additive comprises NiFe-1 type in accordance with EN ISO 1071.
