| Research Abstract |
This research was aimed at developing surface creation techniques by texturing to improve frictional and wear properties, which may lead to higher efficiency and durability of machinery. Surface textures were fabricated by the laser texturing and general machine tools such as the elector-discharge machining, grinding, milling, etc. Results showed that it is possible to achieve low-friction surfaces by controlling the shapes of asperities and valleys even if surfaces were machined by general machine tools. The possibilities of application for mold and die industries were shown.
