Abstract
In order to achieve power transmission parts like a compact gearwheel which indicates high performance properties, hybrid surface modification was performed by combining Super Rapid Induction Heating & Quenching(SRIQ) which creates high fatigue strength and Diamond Like Carbon (DLC) coating which are well known for their high hardness, low friction and excellent wear resistance. And, in order to prevent the base material from decreasing its fatigue strength, DLC was coated by using Unbalanced Magnetron Sputtering (UBMS) method which can coat at low temperature. Rotational bending fatigue tests and friction-wear tests were carried out. It was clear that it is possible to keep high fatigue strength and to create excellent tribological properties at specimen surface by performed hybrid surface modification.Cite This Article
