Surface thermal treatment consisting of a surface carburation to modify the chemical composition of the surface layer, enriching it in Carbon, in order to obtain that pieces with low level of hardness in the nucleus (but high toughness) can acquire a high hardness in surface . The steps for case-hardeninng will be surface carburation and…
