The impact of thermofriction on surface hardness has been investigated in this study. The metal disk method, which hardens parts' surfaces utilizing a metal disk, creates a hardened layer with the re-quired mechanical characteristics at a precise depth. The surface of treated products is one indica-tion of quality indicators. It has been noted that the thermal conductivity of the workpiece and tool material affects the irregular dispersion of heat in the processing zone. For evaluating the average integral rates of heating and cooling of the layer, the metal dependences have a significant impact on the form and properties of the friction-strengthened layer. It is discovered that several processing mode-dependent parameters affect power and density heat flow during hardening. It was found that when the feed rate increases, the hardened layer's depth decreases. The harder layer's depth increases as disk rotation speed (rpm) increases. when the disk rotation speed is increased to 265 rpm and the hardening depth (h) is 0.2 mm or less, it is said to be at N = (190-250) rpm. After heating the treated surface areas to a temperature between 130°C and 160°C above the critical temperature, the treated surface areas were then cooled applying compressed air to achieve the ideal surface hardness. After the hardening process, the surface hardness of blanks made of steel 1045 reached HRC 60, which is higher than conventional hardening.
