description | In connection with the growing importance of the efficiency and reliability of tools in industrial sectors, our research represents a key step in the effort to optimize production processes and increase their service life in real conditions. The study deals with the comparison of the tribological properties of three tool steels, two of which were produced by the powder metallurgy method—ASP2017 and ASP2055—and the last tool steel underwent the conventional production method—X153CrMoV12. The samples were mechanically machined with the finishing technology of turning and, finally, heat treated (Q + T). The study focused on the evaluation of hardness, resulting microstructure, wear resistance, and coefficient of friction (COF). The ball-on-disc method was chosen as part of the COF and wear resistance test. The tribological test took place at room temperature with dry friction to accelerate surface wear. The pressing material was a hardened steel ball G40 (DIN 100Cr6). Measurements were performed at loads of 10 N, 6 N, and 2 N and turning radii of 13 mm, 18 mm, and 23 mm, which represents a peripheral speed of 0.34, 0.47, and 0.60 m/s. The duration of the measurement for each sample was 20 min. The results showed that the COF of powder steels showed almost the same values, while a significant difference occurred with the increase of the radius rotation in the case of conventional steel. The results within the friction mechanism showed two types of wear, namely, adhesive and abrasive wear, depending on the Q + T process. From a tribological point of view in terms of wear, it was possible to state that the material ASP2055 after Q + T showed the lowest rate of wear of all the tested steels. |
