The Study of the Tribological Properties of One-Process and Two-Process Textures after Vapour Blasting and Lapping Using Pin-on-Disc Tests

Abstract:

Wear tests were conducted using a pin-on-disc tester. In the experiment, a steel disc of hardness 40 HRC was put in contact with a steel pin of hardness 64 HRC with spherical end. Disc samples were prepared in order to obtain very similar values of the Sq parameter of one-process and two-process isotropic surfaces. Height of one–process disc surfaces, characterized by the Sq parameter was in the range 0.5 – 6 µm, but of two-process textures 1- 4.5 µm. Dry and lubricated tests, using different contact conditions were carried out. During testing, the friction force was monitored as a function of time. Wear of disc was measured after the test using white light interferometer. Tests under boundary lubrication condition were done using L-AN 46 oil.
