As one of methods by which can be achieved very good results is there a diffusion welding. The aim of paper is to show the possibilities of diffusion welding utilization at creation the heterogeneous joints between Titan grade 2 and high-alloyed austenitic steel AISI 316L. The fundamental theory of diffusion and also scheme and realization of experimentally created diffusion welds in the thermal-mechanical simulator Gleeble(R) 3500 is described in the article. Furthermore, procedure of technological parameters selection when optimization of heterogeneous joint strength properties including metallographic evaluation are taken into account, are also presented.
