Comparison of methods for application of anti-friction coating on parts

Abstract

Around the world, various machines are intensively used, the operation of which is provided by the internal combustion engine. One of the most common types of wear is frictional wear. In order to increase the resource of machine parts operating under constant heavy loads, protective anti-friction coatings are applied to their surfaces, which reduces the downtime of equipment during repairs and maintenance. Anti-friction coatings can consist of a variety of materials and are applied to the part in various ways, as a result of which it becomes necessary to compare them. This article provides a comparative analysis of methods for applying a protective anti-friction layer on various parts of machines and mechanisms. As a result, the advantages and disadvantages of various types of protective coating application are presented.
