The effectiveness of manufacturing technology of antifriction composite parts based on nickel

In a paper the research results of structural periodicity in the antifriction composite parts based on nickel with solid lubricant caf2 have been presented. The periodicity of structure was studied using Fourier analysis. Analysis of the structural status complexity and rheological characteristics of the friction surface was carried out by two-dimensional diffraction spectrum. This analysis determines the average size o f structural components, the distance between them, the concentration and length o f interphase boundaries. Fourier analysis method was used to check, prove and confirm the correctness o f new composite antifriction parts' manufacturing technology. This method has shown the homogeneity o f the composite material as a whole that proves the efficiency o f the developed manufacturing technology. The developed technology provided the high tribological characteristics o f the new parts for printing machines.
