Thermal compression test temperature ranged from 800 to 1 200 °C, the strain rate ranged from 0,01 to 10 s-1, and the deformation degree was 60 % of engineering strain, the deformation behavior of 42CrMo gear steel was studied. As the deformation temperature increases and the strain rate decreases, the stress decreases significantly. By polynomial fitting the relationship between strain(0,05 – 0,9, at intervals of 0,05) and material constants, the straincompensationed Arrhenius constitutive equation for 42CrMo gear steel is established. The correlation coefficient between the experimental data and the predicted data reached 0,9925. This shows that the Arhenius constitutive equation has high accuracy in predicting steel 42CrMo for gear.
