The Formation of Surface Roughness of Piston Rings for the Purpose of Improving the Adhesion of Wear-Resistant Coatings

摘要

The paper considers the application of wear resistant coatings by methods of gas thermal and flame spraying. It demonstrates the relationship between adhesion strength of the sprayed coating and surface roughness after abrasive jet machining using piston rings with steel-molybdenum coating as an example. The authors consider the results of studies aimed defining the relationship between surface roughness and of jet-abrasive machining conditions: the distance between the nozzle exit and the workpiece, the number of passages, the operating air pressure and frequency of the shot swapping.
