This forces the manufacturers to adjust the requirements and production capabilities of cast iron using the most modern technologies that give the expected beneficial economic and operating effects.}, abstract={The paper quotes the results of research in the field of the offered technologies that give special surface features to machine parts made of cast iron by modernising the parameters of the technological process of obtaining high-alloy austenitic cast iron, i.e., by applying coatings, as well as by appropriate surface treatment, the aim of which is and reinforce the material surface with those properties which are important in a given application.}, type={artykuł}, title={Key determinants for high-alloyed cast irons for mechanical engineering}, keywords={alloyed cast iron, wear, machining conditions, alloying additives, coatings, roughness}, }
