Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A laser peening without shots could achieve compressive residual stress and increase in surface hardness while suppressing increase in surface roughness on the tribo-element surface. The purpose of this study was to create an excellent surface with high durability and high lubricity with the same surface modification. Using a YAG laser oscillator, a peening device that synchronously controlled the motorized stages and the laser oscillation was manufactured, and the effect of laser peening on the surface durability was investigated using a test specimen assuming a high strength tribo-element. In addition, the surface was dimple-shaped by laser peening, and the influence of the peening condition and the peening pattern on the frictional characteristics was investigated. Then the results were found to be the basis of the surface creation technology that achieves both improved durability and lubricity.
