Effect of Pin Size on Reciprocating Sliding Wear Test of Ti-6Al-4V

Abstract:

Ti-6Al-4V is material that has the special characterisation and widely used in tribology studies. In this study reciprocating sliding test between Ti-6Al-4V pin on Ti-6Al-4V flat surface was conclude and focussed on the different contact area of pin size. The testing is run using tribometer pin-on-flat machine where the parameter set on the computer. The sample profilometry than analysed using 3D optical microscope (OM) and value of hardness get from Vickers hardness (HV) test. Due to the experiment, the contact pressure for 6.5 mm is higher than the 12 mm pin size, that brings the higher depth of wear.
