Abstract

The functional modification of the surfaces is in many cases the best way to control the tribological damage of a component. Following a surface engineering approach, it is possible to choose the base material, or substrate, with tailored properties (for example, special mechanical or workability properties) and delegate to the modified surface the role of counteracting the tribological loadings. In most cases, the choice of a proper surface treatment results in cost saving, since it allows using cheaper substrate materials. The use of a low-cost substrate may compensate the additional costs of the surface treatment, required to improve system performances [1–4].
