    ENG: The objective of this article is to optimise the deposition modes and the content of exothermic additions (EAs) in the core filler in Fe-C-Cr-Ti with Cu additions hardfacing. To achieve this, JMatPro Release 7.0, Sente Software Ltd., 2016 material characterisation software was used to simulate and calculate the equilibrium phase structure and composition of the Fe-C-Cr-Ti-Cu alloy during the welding thermal cycle. A synergistic approach combining the Taguchi–Analysis of Variance (ANOVA)–Factorial design (FD) method with the standard hybrid Taguchi–ANOVA–Principal Component Analysis (PCA)–Grey Relational Analysis (GRA) is used and justified to optimise factors and develop mathematical models for parameters in the L9 orthogonal experimental design. The study examines how the transfers of deoxidisers depend on the content of exothermic additions in the cored wire filler (EA) and the contact tip-to-work distance (CTWD), while the behaviour of carbide formers is influenced by wire feed speed (WFS) and present arc voltage at the power source (Uset). The research specifically investigates the Fe-C-Cr-Ti-Cu system and the role of copper in stabilising austenite. Findings show that high Cu concentrations (7 wt.%) enhance hardenability by 13%, effectively suppressing pearlite transformation and expanding the bainite region. The desired chemical composition of the deposited metal is determined by the distribution of selected factors, as measured by the transfer coefficients of each element.
