One of the weak spots that reduce the guaranteed operating time of centrifugal pumps is the assembly that includes the seal and protective sleeves. The main purpose of the bushings in the rotor kit is to protect the shaft from corrosion, erosion and wear. The sleeve operates under abrasive wear conditions by packing elements and abrasive particles that get into the liquid pumped by the pump. The protective sleeves made of gray cast iron do not meet the service life in connection with accelerated surface wear. Goal. The purpose of the work is to ensure high wear resistance of cast iron pump parts by heat treatment. Method. The chemical composition was determined on a portable laser analyzer Laser Z200 C +. The structure was studied using an optical microscope. The wear was investigated by the roller-block method on a friction machine. Surface quenching was carried out with a high-frequency lamp generator in a single-turn inductor. Results. The microstructure of gray cast iron as cast consists of pearlite, ferite, double phosphide eutectic and inclusions of lamellar graphite. Microhardness of small-lamellar pearlite is Н50 = 1550–2220 MPa, microhardness of phosphide eutectic is Н50 = 6500–8000 MPa. Surface induction quenching by high-frequency currents followed by low tempering is an effective way to increase the wear resistance of cast iron products of small cross-section and does not cause warping. Cast iron for surface quenching should have a pearlite structure, and graphite should be contained in the form of small inclusions. The optimal heating temperature for induction hardening was determined as 900 °С, which made it possible to obtain the microstructure of the hardened layer – martensite, double phosphide eutectic and graphite. Scientific novelty. The developed modes of surface quenching make it possible to preserve a double phosphide eutectic in the structure of the surface layer, which makes it possible to obtain high hardness and wear resistance of the hardened layer. Practical significance. Surface induction quenching with low tempering of cast gray iron increased its wear resistance by 2,4 times. The previous normalization had practically no effect on the durability of cast iron, since its structure contains less than 10% ferrite.

This paper proposes a novel approach of ultra-high frequency induction cladding with metal wire, in which AISI type 316L stainless steel wire (SS316L) is coated on gray cast iron to improve the specific surface properties of gray cast iron. The corresponding numerical model coupled with electromagnetic field and temperature field has been developed to obtain the representative distribution of induction heat. The established numerical model has been validated experimentally, and the temperature distribution captured in experiment shows good agreement with the calculated results. Given the high heating efficiency and selective heating characteristics of ultra-high frequency induction cladding technology, this method can be applied to the micro-crack repair on the surface of the thermal-sensitive materials.

Production technology of metal casting industry in Indonesia needs to be improved, especially in the manufacturing of spare parts and box engine made of gray cast iron which has various wall thick such as dove tale construction. Microstructure of gray cast iron is influenced by cooling rate during casting, chemical composition and melting treatment process (inoculation). The part which has the thinnest thickness has the fastest cooling therefore, the grain boundary is smaller compared to other section. As a result this part has highest hardness and difficult to be machined. This research is conducted to solve this problem by modifying melting and solidification treatment process. The research starting from micro structure analysis, composition and mechanical properties tests on the product, and then conducting modification treatment through Taguchi method approach. Experimental results obtained show that the best level settings to control factors which affect to the uniformity of the microstructure and mechanical properties in gray cast iron is the addition of seed inoculation super ® 75, as much as 0.25% with the method of inoculation material entering into the Transfer Ladle.Teknologi produksi pada industri pengecoran di Indonesia masih membutuhkan perbaikan terutama dalam pembuatan komponen mesin perkakas dan peralatan pabrik yang terbuat dari besi tuang kelabu yang mempunyai variasi ketebalan yang besar seperti konstruksi ekor burung (dove tale). Pada pengecoran, struktur mikro dari besi tuang kelabu sangat dipengaruhi oleh kecepatan pendinginan, komposisi kimia dan proses perlakuan pada logam cair (inokulasi). Bagian yang mempunyai ukuran paling tipis mempunyai kecepatan pendinigan paling tinggi karena itu ukuran butirnya jauh lebih kecil dari bagian lain, akibatnya bagian ini mempunyai kekerasan lebih tinggi dan sulit dilakukan pengerjaan mesin. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memperbaiki hal ini yang terjadi pada dove taledengan cara memodifikasi proses perlakuan pada cairan besi dan proses pendinginan. Penelitian dimulai dari analisa struktur mikro, pengujian komposisi kimia, pengujian sifat mekanis pada produk kemudian dilakukan modifikasi menggunakan pendekatan metode statistik Taguchi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pengaturan terbaik yang dapat diperoleh untuk mendapatkan keseragaman struktur mikro dan sifat mekanis pada pengecoran besi tuang kelabu adalah penambahan seed inoculation super ® 75, sebesar 0.25% dengan metode pemasukan inokulasi kedalam Ladle pengangkut logam cair.Keywords: carbon, micro structure, hardness, inoculation

Abstract ISO 185/JL/225 is an intermediate-tensile-strength gray cast iron that has a predominantly pearlitic matrix, and a tensile strength of 225–325 MPa (33-47 ksi), when determined on test pieces machined from separately cast, 30 mm (1.2 in.) diameter test bars. Compared with the lower strength gray cast iron grades, ISO 185/JL/225 contains lower carbon and silicon contents, while still maintaining excellent thermal conductivity, damping capacity, and machinability. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, tensile properties, and compressive strength as well as fatigue. It also includes information on heat treating. Filing Code: CI-73. Producer or source: International Organization for Standardization (ISO).

Abstract The brake system of an automobile is composed of disc brake and pad which are co-working components in braking and accelerating. In the braking period, due to friction between the surface of the disc and pad, the thermal heat is generated. It should be avoided to reach elevated temperatures in disc and pad. It is focused on different disc materials that are gray cast iron and carbon ceramics, whereas pad is made up of a composite material. In this study, the CFD model of the brake system is analyzed to get a realistic approach in the amount of transferred heat. The amount of produced heat can be affected by some parameters such as velocity and friction coefficient. The results show that surface temperature for carbon-ceramic disc material can change between 290 and 650 K according to the friction coefficient and velocity in transient mode. Also, if the disc material gray cast iron is selected, it can change between 295 and 500 K. It is claimed that the amount of dissipated heat depends on the different heat transfer coefficient of gray cast iron and carbon ceramics.
