Abstract
The surface topography formed during the technological process has an influence on the wear characteristics and modifies the surface topography of friction components during the operation process, including cutting tools. It is therefore important to carry out research to find the best material and construction solutions to increase their durability and reliability. The research and analysis covered selected coatings (TiN, TiCN, TiAlN) applied to cutting tools for their anti-wear properties. The coatings were obtained through physical vapour deposition PVD. For the purpose of evaluating the tribological properties of the coatings, friction-wear tests were carried out in rotary motion on a ball-on-disc device (ball made of 100 Cr6 steel, discs made of SW7M steel coated with selected coatings) at a constant load (10N), under coolant lubrication conditions. Investigations of the surface topography before and after tribological tests were carried out on a confocal microscope. The friction coefficient and the amount of wear (wear track) of the coatings were shown to vary under the same operating conditions. The highest friction coefficient was obtained for the TiCN coating (0.199), while the lowest for the TiN coating (0.144) – the surface topography of the balls deteriorated (parameters Sq, Sz, Ssk, Sku increased in value). The highest linear wear (281.1 µm) was obtained for the TiAlN coating (the coating was torn halfway through the test), where the ball surface topography has improved (lowered values of parameters Sq, Sz, Ssk, Sku, Spd, Spc).
