Abstract
In order to design the flying height of a burnishing slider accurately, the contact force between the burnishing slider and the disk needs to be well evaluated. This paper studies the contact force of a burnishing slider by both experiment and simulation. The experiment is conducted by measuring the acoustic emission signals of the contact force avalanche, and the simulation is based on the self-developed air bearing surface simulation code applying the probability model for the contact force calculation. The influence of contact force on the burnishing effect is discussed. It is observed that the simulation results are well correlated with the experimental measurements. It is believed that the simulation code is capable to design burnishing sliders with reasonable accuracy.
