Abstract
This survey overviews the functional performance of manufactured components produced by typical finishing machining operations in terms of their topographical characteristics. Surface topographies were characterized using both profile (2D) and 3D (areal) surface roughness parameters. The prediction of typical functional properties such as fatigue, friction, wear, bonding and corrosion is discussed based on appropriate surface roughness parameters. Some examples of real 3D surface topographies produced with desired functional characteristics are provided. This survey highlights technological possibilities of producing surfaces with enhanced functional properties by machining processes.
Highlights
The prediction of the functional properties of machined parts belongs to the fundamental challenges of manufacturing engineering
Functional properties of machined surfaces are correlated with 2D and 3D surface roughness, waviness and surface texture
Some important functional properties including fatigue strength and fretting, sliding friction, abrasive wear resistance, adhesion and bonding and corrosion resistance are characterized in terms of 2D and 3D surface roughness parameters including both S-parameters and V-parameters specified in ISO 25178-2 (2012) standard (Ref 6, 7)
Summary
The prediction of the functional properties of machined parts belongs to the fundamental challenges of manufacturing engineering. Design and manufacturing engineers are equipped with many engineering tools such as surface characterization and visualization using 2D/3D surface roughness parameters specified in ISO 25178 and ISO 16610 standards, VR software and FEM simulations It has been proposed (Ref 4) to consider all problems related to manufacturing and exploitation of machined surfaces in a new discipline termed Areology, (Greek word areo means surface) which extends the range of existing discipline Surface Engineering. Some important functional properties including fatigue strength and fretting, sliding friction, abrasive wear resistance, adhesion and bonding and corrosion resistance are characterized in terms of 2D and 3D surface roughness parameters including both S-parameters and V-parameters specified in ISO 25178-2 (2012) standard (Ref [6, 7]). The survey provides the possible relationships between various functional performance categories and five finish and topography classes
