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.

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.

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.

Hot stamping has gained increasing importance in the last years due to the introduction of High Strength Steels (HSS) to improve the strength-to-mass ratio of stamped components. Despite the advantages in terms of load decrease, springback reduction and increased formability, the elevated temperatures the tools are subjected to may determine severe thermal mechanical cycling, increased oxidation and wear, which influence the tools service life and the quality of the produced parts. In addition, the frictional behaviour is also changing with temperature, thus affecting the performance of the forming operation itself. In this paper a novel experimental apparatus suitable for reciprocating sliding wear tests at elevated temperatures is presented. It consists of a linear sliding guideway connected to an electrical actuator and equipped with a heating plate to heat metal sheets. A solid frame embeds a screw device used to apply normal load. Thermocouples placed both on the plate and on sheet sample are used to control temperature during the test. The machine is also equipped with two load cells to record the normal and the tamgential loads. The 22MnB5 high strength steel was chosen as reference material for the machine testing. The results showed the capability of the new equipment and the good stability of the mechanical and thermal condition during testing.

Sliding contact will experience wear in majority of mechanical components during their service life where it reduces the performance of the components. The capability to predict the evolution of reciprocating wear scars, such as the scar’s width and depth, would be a valuable tool when designing mechanical components. Wear scar mechanism behaviour is characterised during stabilized cycle reciprocating sliding wear test of Ti-6Al-4V investigated using pin-on-flat arrangement under variable duration of sliding. The test samples were analyzed using profilometer test, optical microscopy test, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) test, Energy Depressive X-ray (EDX) test and Vickers Hardness (HV) test. Stabilised high number of cycles shows low wear rate and initiation period of low cycles produced higher wear rate.

There are plenty of methods for determining the wear volume after a wear test. Due to the geometrical assumptions, some of them could unfortunately lead to mistaken results. It has been shown that a novel method, the direct microscopic measurement, is able to calculate the wear volume on a specimen surface very precisely and accurately [1-2]. It is based on creating a series of line profiles perpendicular to the wear scar. This novel method, however, needs to be characterized in terms of measurement limitations and minimum detectable volume capability. For example, how small or how shallow a wear scar could be calculated or measured with this method, must be determined. For this purpose, it has been prepared a series of wear test specimens exposed to the different amounts of wear in a “pin-on-disk” type test rig. As specimens, two different non-ferrous mold materials, Al bronze alloys, were selected and prepared metallographically. Counterpart materials were inox steel and bearing steel balls with diameter of 6 mm. Normal load was set to 5 N. Test configurations were set to 1, 5, 10 and 100 m of sliding distance values, in turn. Wear tests were conducted in according to ASTM G99 standard. Wear volume results were determined both direct microscopic measurement and also a 3D optical microscope methods. Comparison results showed that the novel method could be successfully used for wear volume calculations even with small amounts of wear volume conditions.

Fe-28Al and Fe-28Al-10Ti alloys were prepared by mechanical alloying and hot pressing. The phases and dry sliding wear behavior were studied. The results show that Fe-28Al bulk materials are mainly characterized by the low ordered B2 Fe3Al structure with some dispersed Al2O3 particles. Fe-28Al-10Ti exhibits more excellent wear resistance than Fe-28Al, especially after long distance sliding wear test. There are obvious differences in wear mechanisms of Fe-28Al and Fe-28Al-10Ti alloys under different testing conditions. Under the load of 100N, there is plastic deformation on the worn surface of Fe-28Al. The main wear performance of Fe-28Al-10Ti is particle abrasion, the characteristics of which are micro cutting and micro furrows, but micro-crack and layer splitting begin to form on the surface of Fe-28Al. Under the load of 200N, serious plastic deformation and work-hardening lead to rapid crack propagation and eventually the fatigue fracture of Fe-28Al. Plastic deformation is the main wear mechanism of Fe-28Al-10Ti under the load of 200N, which are characterized by micro-crack and small splitting from the worn surface.
