I need to come up with a plan to build up material on a 4130 cog which feeds anchor chain(the cog teeth are very worn). I would like to deposit weld metal and then have the excess removed, but unfortunately the cog is huge and cannot be moved making it near immpossible to achieve the high temperatures(stress relieveing at 1200F) required to get the desired hardness of 28-30Rc after welding. I was thinking of using another surface treatment after welding to get the desired hardness....liquid nitriding, carburizing or laser hardening???
Anyone have any creative ideas as to how I can solve this problem?
Thanks for your input
