Comparison the Wear Behavior of Stainless Steel 316 for Prediction Equation of Tool Life

Abstract

This objective of research was studied the wear behavior of stainless steel 316 from ASTM-G65 testing standard which was investigated the tool life of stainless steel 316 with difference sand size namely; 35 and 48 mesh These study were indicated the tool life under dry abrasive wear condition. In experimental of wear testing, were used the specimen (stainless steel 316) of 15×40×3 mm which were slide with polyurethane wheel thickness of 20 mm by spindle speed 360 rpm and the two applied load (5 and 10 kg). In the meantime, these wear testing were simulated the four testing time each 30, 60, 90, and 120 sec under dry sand abrasive wear condition. Summarily, the expired deterioration by sand of 48 mesh have been damage more than the expired deterioration by sand of 35 mesh. Moreover, a study of wear behaviors can create the prediction equation of tool life by applied engineering.
