Wear Behaviour of Hard Cr Coatings for Cold Forming Tools Under Dry Sliding Conditions
Journal Title: Tribology in Industry - Year 2012, Vol 34, Issue 1
Abstract
Cr hard coatings are largely used in industry in metal cutting and cold forming processes; This work on quantitative way represents improvement, in terms of wear resistance, which is obtained by depositing Cr hard coating on foundation material. Wear testing is done on tribometer with block –on –disc contact geometry at sliding contact of Cr hard coated sample with steel disc. Testing was performed in conditions without lubrication at variable value of contact parameters (normal load, sliding speed). Cr hard coatings in all contact conditions show smaller values of wear rate.

Study of Surface Wear and Damage Induced by Dry Sliding of Tempered AISI 4140 Steel against Hardened AISI 1055 Steel
In industry, the sliding mechanical systems are subject to friction and wear phenomena. These phenomena can be the origin of a reduction of the efficiency of the mechanical system even to be responsible for its incapacit...
The Influence of Corrosion on the Microstructure of Thermally Treated ZA27/SiCp Composites
The influence of corrosion on the microstructure of ZA27/SiCp composites was examined. The composites were produced by compo casting technique and then subjected to the thermal treatment (T4 regime). Microstructural exam...
The Development of Mathematical Model for the Prediction of Ageing Behaviour for Al-Cu-Mg/Bagasse Ash Particulate Composites
The thermal ageing behaviour model of Al-Cu-Mg/Bagasse ash particulate composites with 2-10 wt% bagasse ash particles produced by double stir-casting method was developed in terms of weight fraction of bagasse ash, agein...
A Review on Tribological Characterization of Lubricants with Nano Additives for Automotive Applications
Automotive manufacturers made significant efforts to achieve an overall increase in the energy efficiency and to reduce the toxic emission level. In the way to achieve these goals, non-conventional engine technologies we...
The Wear of the Focusing Tube and the Cut-Surface Quality
The wear of the focusing tube is a very important feature of the abrasive water jet machining. Of all rejected focusing tubes, 85% are worn. Similarly, the age of focusing tube influences the cut geometry and quality of...
