Ti-6Al-4V is material that has the special characterisation and widely used in tribology studies. In this study reciprocating sliding test between Ti-6Al-4V pin on Ti-6Al-4V flat surface was conclude and focussed on the different contact area of pin size. The testing is run using tribometer pin-on-flat machine where the parameter set on the computer. The sample profilometry than analysed using 3D optical microscope (OM) and value of hardness get from Vickers hardness (HV) test. Due to the experiment, the contact pressure for 6.5 mm is higher than the 12 mm pin size, that brings the higher depth of wear.

In spite of the extensive use of sintered iron-based components in sliding situations, there are very few studies about their wear behaviour. In this paper, the effect of processing parameters on the wear behaviour of sintered iron and steam oxidized sintered iron were analyzed. Three levels of density were used, ranging from 7.10 to 6.55 g/cm3. In addition, two different steam oxidation processes were used with the objective of obtaining different types of surface oxides. Reciprocating sliding wear tests in a ball on flat geometry were performed under a constant stroke and frequency. Three levels of normal load were used. Wear was evaluated in terms of the volume loss by using data of surface topography provided by a 3D laser interferometer. The wear mechanisms were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy. The wear behaviour of the specimens was compared and analyzed in terms of the wear volume and wear mechanisms. The results show that wear behaviour is influenced mainly by the load level and steam oxidation. Steam oxidation greatly decreased the wear volume of these materials under low and medium loads.

Reciprocating sliding wear test of uncoated titanium alloy, Ti-6Al-4V is investigated using pin-on-flat contact arrangement of Ti-6Al-4V/Ti-6Al-4V pair under variable number of cycles at low number of cycles. The worn surfaces of the titanium alloy specimens were analyzed with the use of optical microscope (2D and 3D OM) and Vickers Hardness analysis was carried on. The pattern of the wear scar characteristics determined and the finding at the end of wear track had been focus through the presence at the end of wear track. It is suggesting an evidence of plastic deformation with the increasing in hardness value. The increase in hardness value at the end of wear track indicates increase in the plastic deformation with increasing number of cycles.

Reciprocating sliding wear test of uncoated titanium alloy, Ti-6Al-4V is investigated using pin-on-flat arrangement under variable applied normal load. The wear scar produced by the reciprocating sliding wear test is analysed by surface profile examination using 2D and 3D optical microscope (OM) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Through SEM, the energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) is used to characterise the composition of the substance on the worn surface. The hardness value of the wear scar is investigated at three regions which are; worn, unworn and the end of the wear track using Micro Vickers Hardness Test. The presence of moderate oxygen composition and the increasing in hardness value at the end of wear track suggesting evidence of plastic deformation. The increase in hardness value at the end of wear track indicates increase in plastic deformation with increasing applied normal load.
