The paper presents the results of the research of the formation of thin surface corrosion resistant layers on ductile iron with spheroidal graphite. Surface layers were created by a two-step technological process. In a first step, the surface layer material was applied to the surface of the ductile iron by means of a flame-powder coating in a thickness of 0.8 to 1 mm. The treatment of the layer was carried out in the second step by means of a defocused laser beam or a programmed-deflected electron beam. The influence of the laser beam defocusing and the influence of the energy distribution of the deflected electron beam on the characteristics of the formed thin surface layer was studied. 40 mm thick GGG 40 ductile iron samples were used as the substrate experimental material. The Ni-B-Si-type nickel powder with the designation NP22 and Ni-Cr-B-Si-type nickel powders of the type NP52 were used to form the surface layer. The quality of layers was assessed on the basis of surface forming, metallographic evaluation of selected properties of the layer and measurement of micro-hardness at the interface of the layer and the substrate material.
