Abstract

According to the information identified in some bibliographic sources, Damascus steels are obtained by hot forging some strips of steel with different carbon contents. The forging is carried out until the strips are solidified after welds of short length have partially solidified them. To obtain samples of Damascus steel, the functional requirements for the manufacturing process of such samples have been formulated. Defining the sequence of manufacturing operations of Damascus steel test samples and equipment to materialize each functional requirement was carried out using axiomatic design principles. Appropriate ways of materialization have been identified for each of the operations included in the technology of manufacturing test samples. The practical implementation of the technological operations confirmed the possibilities of manufacturing test samples from Damascus steels with the proposed technology.
