Abstract

Surface texturing is thought to be as an effective tribological method of decreasing friction coefficient of contact pairs. Firstly, AISI1045 steel surface is dimple-textured by a convenient and economical way of pellet-pressing, then, the textured and polished samples is against SiC ball lubricated by engine oil to carry out tribological tests in reciprocating mode in tribomachine type UMT-II. It is concluded that surface dimple-texture made by pellet-pressing is beneficial to improve tribological properties lubricated by engine oil under10N load and 5mm/s sliding speed.
