Precise wear evaluation is essential to develop prediction models, applied to design materials, components and to optimise new manufacturing processes.

Abstract
Precise wear evaluation is essential to develop prediction models, applied to design materials, components and to optimise new manufacturing processes. Pin-on-disc is a widespread standardised conventional sliding wear test. Conventional characterisation of resulting wear exploits gravimetric or profilometric techniques. These have inadequate precision and accuracy for applications characterised by low-wear and uneven morphology and are being replaced with high-resolution and information-rich inspections to measure surface topography. Metrological characterisation of topography-based methods still lacks in literature, which prevents the performance comparison with conventional techniques. This paper develops a framework to evaluate topography-based methods’ measurement uncertainty and compare methods’ performances accordingly on experimental wear data on PTFE and Aluminium. Results show that topographic methods improve pin-on-disc characterisation's reliability.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
