The General results and conclusions 1.An additive laser technology of production of parts made of composite material on the basis of steel and titanium carbide has been developed. Have been obtained samples of composite materials with a content of a hardening of the carbide phase to 34%, with sizes up to 50x75x50 mm 3. 2.Samples of steel, made of cross-strategy of application, have isotropic properties. Limits of fluidity and strength are at the level of cast material. However, the elongation may vary depending on the strategy of cladding. 3.The technological process maps of direct laser manufacture of bulk samples with a certain structure, a given geometry and high capacity use (factor powder material up to 90%) have been prodused. 4.The mechanisms of interaction of the carbide phase and metal matrix, characterised for laser processing method, have been discovered. 5.The resulting composite material, not conceding on indicators of surface hardness, but has reduced by 1-10% mass perspective as the replacement of traditional steel 14ХН3МА for details of special purpose, working in conditions of intensive wear at high temperatures. 9
