Abstract:

Nickel coated steel is used in the industry to produce battery shells. These shells are typically produced in several process steps: drawing, redrawing and several ironing steps at high production rates. The nickel plated steel sheet is subjected to a large range of deformations andpressures. Sometimes scratches in the longitudinal direction of the shell (hairlines) occur, due to the build-up of particles on the tooling (i.e. galling). Cleaning of the tools will be necessary and will bring additional costs. In this paper, analyses are performed on tribological behaviour of nickel plated steel sheet with the focus on tool wear. Adhesive wear has been observed to be the main wear mechanism. The adhesive layer build up consists mainly of compacted particles (often in the shape of flakes) of nickel and iron. The Slider on Sheet Test (SOST) is found to be a relevant set-up to study tribological behaviour of nickel plated steels in battery production.
