Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of laser surface texturing on fatigue life and tribological properties. Textures were introduced before and after hard TiAlN coating deposition in order to investigate the sequence of surface texturing process. It was found that the sequence of surface texturing has an effect on tribological and fatigue life behaviour. If laser texturing is done after coating deposition, friction is lower because of the better wettability of steel in comparison with coating, but suffers in fatigue life properties.
