Abstract

In order to study the friction and wear properties of cast iron in free grinding environment under the condition of line contact, this paper presented a new method to calculate the friction coefficient by measuring the friction torque. Through the self-developed free abrasive grinding experimental device in line contact condition, this work carried out friction and wear experiment with relative speed, load, abrasive particle diameter, and abrasive mass fraction as process parameters, and studied the evolution rules of friction coefficient and wear amount of cast iron materials under different process parameters. Based on the response surface method Box-Behnken experimental design, the significance of the experimental results was analyzed, and the prediction model of the friction coefficient and wear amount of cast iron was established. According to the significance of the prediction model, the influence degree of each process parameter on the friction coefficient and wear amount was revealed. The results showed that under the action of free abrasive, the friction coefficient of cast iron material in line contact with GCr15 was between 0.18 and 0.35. When the experimental time was 1.5 h, the removal amount of cast iron material was between 20 and 65 mg, which is significantly increased compared with that without abrasive and the wearing capacity of cast iron increased with the increase of relative speed, load, abrasive particle diameter, and abrasive mass fraction. The friction coefficient had a negative correlation with relative speed, and a positive correlation with abrasive particle diameter and abrasive mass fraction. With the increase of load, the change of friction coefficient decreased first and then increased. The influence degree of each process parameter on the friction coefficient and wear amount of cast iron material: the particle diameter and relative velocity of abrasive were relatively significant, the abrasive mass fraction was the second, and the load was the smallest. Through random experiments, the prediction model of friction coefficient and wearing capacity were verified to be highly accuracy, and could be used to predict the friction and wear performance parameters of cast iron in the process of free grinding under the condition of line contact. It provided a certain theoretical basis for the friction and wear behavior of cast iron as a grinding tool material in the grinding process.
