One of the serious challenges in developing rotary compressor with HFC refrigerant is the prediction of scuffing times and wear amounts between vane and roller surface. In this study, the tribological characteristics of sliding surfaces using roller-vane geometry of rotary compressor were investigated. The sliding tests were carried out under various sliding speeds, normal loads and surface roughness. During the tests, friction force, wear scar width, time to failure, surface temperature, and surface roughness were monitored. Because severe wear was occurred on vane surface, TiN coating was applied on sliding surfaces to prolong the wear-life of vane-roller interfaces. From the sliding tests, it was found that there was the optimum initial surface roughness to break in and to prolong the wear life of sliding surfaces. Depending on load and speed, the protective layers, which were composed of metallic oxide and organic compound, were formed on sliding surfaces. Those would play an important role in the amount of friction and wear between roller and vane surfaces.

Dry CVT consists of a driving pulley and a driven pulley joined by rubber V-belt. Each pulley consists of a fixed flange and a movable flange. The movable flange moves toward a fixed flange under the actuation of a centrifugal roller, as the driving pulley speed increases. The important claim which have an influence on the performance of the Dry CVT is the wear of the centrifugal roller. In this study ball type is proposed instead of roller type of movable flange to resolve the claim. Simulation is carried out for new model to verificate performance, experiments are carried out for new model to evaluate performances.

An experimental programme was established to determine the wear behaviour of TiN coatings of thickness 1 $\mu$m and 3 $\mu$m. by PECVD with the variation of applied load, sliding velocity and sliding distance. It was shown that oxidation of transferred metal as sliding speed increased formed oxide film so that it contributed in decreasing the wear rate. With the roller-on-disc tribometer employed, the wear rate of the roller specimen was decreased with the increase in sliding distance due to the reduction in effective contact pressure. Finally, the severe cracks concentrated at the trailing edge of contact surface were explained in terms of high tensile stress prevailing at the trailing edge of the contact and were identified as a dominant wear mechanism as well as the strong local welding between coating layer and the counter surface, leading to the debonding of the coating layer.

A modified surface layer by ion implantation is very thin (under 1 $\mu\textrm{m}$) but has superior mechanical characteristics. therefore ion implantation has been used successfully as a surface treatment technology to improve the wear, fatigue, and corrosion resistances of materials. MEVVA which is a kind of ion beam apparatus has merits of low cost and is usable to various metals, but occurs a droplet ranging from micron to tens of micron on the implanted surface at ion implantations. wear is a dynamic phenomenon on interacting surfaces with rotative motion. Since wear changes in condition of the surface, we should control to surface. In order to improve a wear resistance of Ti ion implanted 1C-3Cr steel(material for roller in the cold working process), it is essential to investigate the effect of the droplets on the wear characteristics. In this study, we investigate the effect of the droplets on the wear characteristics of 1C-3Cr steel using SEM Tribosystem as in-situ system. Results show that the droplet occurred at ion implantation becomes the cause of severe wear. Therefore, the ion-implanted surface should be removed the droplet to improve wear resistance.

This paper shows the failure(wear) phenomena of differential bearings in the transaxle of passenger cars and investigate their characteristics. It was found that the wear mechanism was mild abrasive wear caused by the presence of particles in the gear box. The sides of the outer raceway was more neared than center of it, so it is showed as if the crowning of outer raceway are increased. With close examination of the failed bearing, various countermeasures could be suggested.

Through this study, we investigate the effects of ultrasonic nanocrystal surface modification (UNSM) technology on the fatigue life of needle roller bearings. The fatigue life of untreated and UNSM-treated needle roller bearings is evaluated using a roller fatigue tester at various contact stress levels under oil-lubricated conditions. We can ascertain that the fatigue life of an UNSM-treated needle roller bearing was extended by approximately 34.3% in comparison with an untreated one, where the effectiveness of UNSM technology diminishes with increasing contact stress. The surface roughness and surface hardness of needle roller bearings before and after being treated by UNSM technology are compared and discussed to understand the role of UNSM technology in improving the fatigue life of needle roller bearings. In addition, a fractograph of the damaged bearings is observed using a scanning electron microscopy to shed light on the fracture mechanisms of bearings under different contact stress levels. We can therefore conclude that the application of UNSM technology to the needle roller bearings improves the fatigue life by reducing the friction coefficient and increasing the wear resistance; this may be attributed to a reduction in surface roughness from 0.5 to $0.149{\mu}m$ and an increase in surface hardness from 58 to 62 HRc.

The objective of this research is to develop the coating technique by a porous self-fluxing alloy for improving the mechanical properties of run-out table roller surface with the hot rolling. To enhance the durability of run-out table roller with the hot rolling, the high hardness of roller surface should be maintained at high temperatures, and the improvement of wear resistance, corrosion resistance, heat resistance, burn resistance and adhesion resistance should be maintained. In order to be able to transport reliably a hot rolled steel sheet, also, the appropriate friction coefficient on the roller surface should be maintained and the slip between roller and steel should not occur. In this study, the wear resistance of roller increases after the self-fluxing alloy is changed to a cermet by adding the tungsten carbide(WC), and the coefficient of friction increases and the ability of grip is improved because the porosities are made by coating with fine iron powder on the roller surface. As a result, it is found that the ability of grip between the steel and the roller coated by a porous self-fluxing alloy contained to 5 ~ 10 wt% of Fe in the coating layer is improved compared to the roller coated by Ni-Cr. This is because the porosities are made after Fe contained in the roller is partially alloyed by heating with a furnace in the fusing process and the rest is eliminated by oxidation and dissolution.

A rotary table is a positioning device used in metalworking for the multiple axes of machine tools, and the utilization trend is increasing with machining efficiency. In the construction of a rotary table, the core technology is a power transfer unit that drives the table, typically a gear type and a roller gear cam type. As the rollers installed on the turret column have rolling movement on the contact surface of the roller gear cam, the roller gear cam type has the advantage of low wear, high load, and fast driving. Therefore, it is currently being replaced by a roller gear cam type. In this study, we researched a 5-axis machining method for the roller gear cam on a rotary table and a new method of applying double roller gear cam curve to reduce the noise and shock between the roller and the cam surface. We implemented the 5-axis machining process in this study using software to generate NC-code and machined the roller gear cams using a Mazak Integrex-200IV. We found that the roller gear cam and turret were able to identify mutual touch status and the noise from the operation of the roller gear cam was substantially reduced.
