Investigating the Relationship between the Theoretical Layer Thickness of the Graphite Content of Lubricant and the Kudo’s Friction Number in the Case of Forged Parts | Chapter 8 | New Ideas Concerning Science and Technology Vol. 11

 It is critical to specify the friction coefficient that characterises the lubrication conditions when performing numerical analysis on forged components. The relationship between the Kudo's friction number and the theoretical layer thickness of the graphite film covering the sink cavity is shown in our paper using a combined method of a known SU (Simple Upsetting) deformation and EDS (Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy). The experiments were carried out using non-synthetically generated lubricant concentrates that had been diluted to various degrees. The importance of this relationship is demonstrated by the discovery of a correlation between layer thickness and average particle size distribution, allowing for a reduction in the thickness of the graphite layer sprayed onto the cavity surface.
