The invention discloses an induction-cladded gradient hard composite material coating technique, and belongs to the technical field of material surface engineering. The surface of a metal part is pre-coated with a gradient coating, a hard phase and a metal phase of the gradient coating are composited, the pre-coating has element gradient distribution that the content of the hard phase increases gradually from an inner layer to an outer layer, the volume percent of the hard phase ranges from 0% to 90%, the pre-coating is inductively heated and re-melted in a protective atmosphere, and a continuous gradient hard composite material coating, which is combined with the base body interface of the metal part and is compact and flawless, is formed through mutual diffusion of the layers. By the gradient hard composite material pre-coating, the problems such as overhigh heat stress caused by conventional metallurgical bonding of induction-cladded hard coatings, concentrated coating impact heat stress caused by cladding of laser beams, electron beams and plasma beams and base body structure degradation caused by overall coating heating, brazing and sintering of the part are solved; the continuous gradient hard composite material coating meets requirements on high performance such as wear, corrosion and impact resistance of the part.
