in this research, b4c-ni cermet coating was sprayed on the surface of 4130 steel from b4c and ni feed-stockpowders using high velocity oxy-fuel (hvof) method. in order to characterize the tribological behavior of thecoating, ball on disk wear tests were done at the ambient temperature and under the loads of 1, 3 and 5 n.phase analysis of the coating after spraying was studied by x-ray diffracto...

The BOROZAR-P boronizing paste is used for thermo chemical treatment of steel machine tools and parts for enhancing their wear-resistance, i.e. extending their useful life-time. Boronizing in this case leads to hardening of the thermally treated surfaces. This new method comprises the formation of wearand corrosionresistant surface layer with minimum loss of time and expenses. The thus obtained...

in this study the effect of input parameters of the edm process (pulse on-time, duty cycle and tool polarity), on the material removal rate (mrr), tool wear ratio (twr) and maximum surface roughness (rmax) in the machining aisi h13 tool steel has been studied. this study shows that increasing the duty cycle in the two conditions of tool polarity, material removal rate and the maximum surface ro...

The tool wear is an unavoidable phenomenon when using coated carbide tools during hard turning of hardened steels. This   work focuses on the prediction of tool wear using regression analysis and artificial neural network (ANN).The work piece taken into consideration is AISI4140 steel hardened to 47 HRC. The models are developed from the results of experiments, which are carried out based on De...

Depth-sensing indentation equipment is widely used for evaluation of the hardness and Young’s modulus of materials. The depth resolution of this technique allows the use of ultra-low loads. However, aspects related to the determination of the contact area under indentation should be cautiously considered when using this equipment. These are related to the geometrical imperfections of the tip, t...

This study focused on the evaluation of the machinability of different carburising steel grades by using a cemented carbide cutting tool during semi finishing of steel. The effect of the steel composition, microstructure and inclusion characteristics on the cutting tool wear in the soft part turning was evaluated for a reference steel R (0.028% S, 0.0009% O), a clean C steel (0.003% S, 0.0005% ...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of quenching and tempering temperatures on the microstructure, mechanical properties and the wear characteristics of medium carbon-high chromium wear resistant steel. In addition, the dominant wear mechanisms were studied. For this purpose, austenitizing and tempering temperatures were selected in the ranges of 900- 1000 °C and 300- 500...

In order to improve efficiency of cutting process in production industry, development of new steel which has good machinablity is desired. The work material which has good surface roughness, easy breakable chip and small tool wear as the good machinablity is expected. And the free-machining steel was developed owning to adding elements which could make the machinablity better. Of all others, le...

This paper presents the characterization of a secondary cone crusher concave liner made Hadfield steel used in Chilean mining after crushing copper minerals during all service life. During use, suffers indentation (cold working) and abrasion; this combination provides with layer that constantly renews itself, maintaining surface highly resistant to abrasive wear. The results presented here were...

Impact testing methodology is findings the applications for determining the impact strength of the different materials. Oneof the most important characteristics of structural steels, toughness is assessed by the Charpy V-notch impact test. The objective of the research was to maximize the impact toughness by selecting various combinations of Charpy Impact test parameters. In this paper, experim...
