摘要

This paper presents an analysis of high frequency induction cladding (HFIC) by the Taguchi method for analyzing the effect of the variation of control parameters, including electric current density, frequency, gap ratio and diameter of the shaft work-piece. First, the experiments of Taguchi L9 are designed to investigate the impact of the control parameters using FEM model. Second, extreme deviation is carried out with the numerical simulation results. Thirdly, the impact with the control parameters variation is investigated with the optimal parameter combination. The results show that to obtain the best quality cladding and control phase transformation of the substrate for the HFIC process, the determined optimal order for the control parameters is the electric current (A). Secondly consider the frequency (B), consider the diameter again (C), the gap ratio (D). The optimal order for selecting the factors to achieve the ideal time-consuming, the maximum temperature gradient, and the maximum thickness ratio are D > A > B > C, A > B > C > D, and D > B > A > C, respectively.
