摘要
The article presents the investigation results of titanium alloy Ti6Al4V surface layer after laser melting process. The process of laser melting was performed using Nd-YAG laser. The evaluation of structure of the alloy as well as hardness and chemical composition was performed. It was shown that laser melting changes the structure and properties of titanium alloy Ti6Al4V and process parameters as scanning speed affects the thickness of zones in top layer of the material. Due to the laser melting process more wear resistive surface can be obtained that increases the wear and corrosion resistance of orthopeadic prosthesis.
