Abstract (en)

The present invention refers to a process for manufacturing engine starting motor shafts, comprising the steps of: - providing a raw workpiece made of a C45EC-grade steel made of a material having a chemical composition comprising the following elements as percentages referred to the total weight of the raw workpiece: from 0.32 to 0.45 weight-percent of C; from 0.73 to 0.80 weight-percent of Mn; from 0 to 0.013 weight-percent of Si; from 0 to 0.10 weight-percent of P; from 0 to 0.10 weight-percent of S; - submitting said raw steel workpiece to a single cold-forming cycle to produce an intermediate workpiece adapted to undergo subsequent surface machining or chemical-physical finishing treatments.
