 abstract={<p>
 The cast alloys crystallizing in Fe-C-V system are classified as white 
 cast iron, because all the carbon is bound in vanadium carbides. High
 </p>
 <p>
 vanadium cast iron has a very high abrasion resistance due to hard VC 
 vanadium carbides. However, as opposed to ordinary white cast
 </p>
 <p>
 iron, this material can be treated using conventional machining tools. 
 This article contains the results of the group of Fe-C-V alloys of
 </p>
 <p>
 various microstructure which are been tested metallographic, mechanical 
 using an INSTRON machine and machinability with the method
 </p>
 <p>
 of drilling. The study shows that controlling the proper chemical 
 composition can influence on the type and shape of the crystallized
 </p>
 <p>
 matrix and vanadium carbides. This makes it possible to obtain a 
 high-vanadium cast iron with very high wear resistance while
 </p>
 <p>
 maintaining a good workability.
