The purpose of the study was to investigate the effect of the method used to arrange the components during gas carburization and their charging in the quenching medium and the selection of the optimal variant that provides for a reduction in the quenching deformation of the coarse gears of coal mining combines. The difference in deformation during quenching of components in the horizontal and suspended positions is of little significance, with the exception of the deformation across the width of the slotted grooves. The influence exerted by the factors under investigation on quenching deformation must be evaluated with allowance for the ''sensitivity'' of the individual structural elements of the specimens (gear rim, slotted grooves in the openings, etc.) to technological effects during carburizing and quenching.
