Abstract
The changes induced by machining of hard steels in their surface layer have been investigated. Attention has been given to the microstructur e and mesohardness of very thin (a few micrometers) surface layers of the quenched and tempered alloy steels. It has been found that both th e kind of cutting tool and its wear rate highly influences the workpie ce surface layer. The chemical composition of the work material is als o an essential factor.
