| description | The rotavator blade, a part of an agricultural equipment rotavator, is used for the soil bed preparation. These blades have direct interaction with soil in agricultural land. Bad, rocky, gravel, sandy, and high rough-hard texture of soil are the main factor to damage the surface of the rotavator blade and a high wear rate is observed. This causes to decrease in the overall life of a rotavator blade. It also changes the geometry of the rotavator blade after a few operations, and that all effects the performance capability of this blade. Hence HVOF (High-velocity oxy-fuel) is used to modify the surface that improved wear resistance of the rotavator blade's surface. Feedstock powder used for the coating is WC–10%Co–4%Cr with Ni–20%Cr as a bond coat on 30MNCRB5 steel substrate (Rotavator blade's material). Six samples are prepared to test it on the Pin-On-Disc wear testing apparatus to determine the wear rate, weight loss, cumulative volume loss and linear wear rate, three bare 30MNCRB5 steel and three WC–10%Co–4%Cr coated samples are prepared with 8 mm diameter and 30 mm length in a cylindrical pin shape. Coated samples are characterized using the XRD (X-ray diffraction), SEM (Scanning electron microscope) with EDAX (Energy-dispersive spectroscopy), and X-ray mapping techniques. Worn out surfaces of bare 30MNCRB5 steel and WC–10%Co–4%Cr coated samples are investigated using the SEM (Scanning electron microscope) to study the microstructure of worn surface that helped out to identify the wear behavior. The HVOF (High-velocity oxy-fuel) spray coating drastically improved the surface to defend it from wear, and very less weight loss was seen in the WC–10%Co–4%Cr coated samples as compared to bare 30MNCRB5 steel material. Weight loss determined by the bare (30MNCRB5) material at 40N, 50N, 60N loads are 2.996 × 10−3 Kgm, 3.003 × 10−3 Kgm, 3.123 × 10−3 Kgm, and coated (WC–10%Co–4%Cr) sample at 40N, 50N, 60N loads are 0.006 × 10−3 Kgm, 0.030 × 10−3 Kgm, 0.038 × 10−3 Kgm respectively. |
