A possible way for increasing the cutting tool life can be achieved by heating the workpiece in order to diminish the shear stress of material and thus decrease the machining forces. In this study, quartz electrical resistances were set around the workpiece for heating it during the turning. In the tests, heat-resistant austenitic alloy steel was used, hardenable by precipitation, mainly used in combustion engine exhaustion valves, among other special applications for industry. The results showed that in the hot machining the cutting tool life can be increased by 340% for the highest cutting speed tested and had a reduction of 205% on workpiece surface roughness, accompanied by a force decrease in relation to conventional turning. In addition, the chips formed in hot turning exhibited a stronger tendency to continuous chip formation indicating less energy spent in material removal process. Microhardness tests performed in the workpieces subsurface layers at 5 m depth revealed slightly higher values in the hot machining than in conventional, showing a tendency toward the formation of compressive residual stress into plastically deformed layer. The hot turning also showed better performance than machining using cutting fluid. Since it is possible to avoid the use of cutting fluid, this machining method can be considered better for the environment and for the human health.

The results of the investigation on Solution Heat Treatment of Plasma Nitrided (SHTPN) precipitation-hardened steel 15-5PH are presented. The layers have been obtained by the plasma nitriding process followed by solution heat treatment at different temperatures. The influence of the solution heat treatment after nitriding on the dissolution process of the nitrided layer has been considered. The nitrided layers were studied by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray microanalysis (EDX), and X-Ray diffraction. Micro-hardness tests of the nitrided layers and solubilized nitrided layers have been carried out and interpreted by considering the processing conditions. It was found that high nitrogen austenitic cases could be obtained after SHTPN of martensitic precipitation-hardened steel (15-5PH). When Solution Heat Treatment (SHT) was performed at 1100 °C, some precipitates were observed. The amount of precipitates significantly reduced when the temperature increased. The EDX microanalysis indicated that the precipitate may be chromium niobium nitride. When the precipitation on the austenite phase occurred in small amount, the corrosion resistance increased in SHTPN specimens and the pit nucleation potential also increased. The best corrosion result occurred for SHT at 1200 °C.

A comprehensive study of pulsed nitriding in AISI H13 tool steel at low temperature (400 degrees C) is reported for several durations. X-ray diffraction results reveal that a nitrogen enriched compound (epsilon-Fe2-3N, iron nitride) builds up on the surface within the first process hour despite the low process temperature. Beneath the surface, X-ray Wavelength Dispersive Spectroscopy (WDS) in a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) indicates relatively higher nitrogen concentrations (up to 12 at.%) within the diffusion layer while microscopic nitrides are not formed and existing carbides are not dissolved. Moreover, in the diffusion layer, nitrogen is found to be dispersed in the matrix and forming nanosized precipitates. The small coherent precipitates are observed by High-Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HR-TEM) while the presence of nitrogen is confirmed by electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS). Hardness tests show that the material hardness increases linearly with the nitrogen concentration, reaching up to 14.5 GPa in the surface while the Young Modulus remains essentially unaffected. Indeed, the original steel microstructure is well preserved even in the nitrogen diffusion layer. Nitrogen profiles show a case depth of about similar to 43 mu m after nine hours of nitriding process. These results indicate that pulsed plasma nitriding is highly efficient even at such low temperatures and that at this process temperature it is possible to form thick and hard nitrided layers with satisfactory mechanical properties. This process can be particularly interesting to enhance the surface hardness of tool steels without exposing the workpiece to high temperatures and altering its bulk microstructure.

L’attività di ricerca della presente tesi di dottorato ha riguardato sistemi tribologici complessi di interesse industriale per i quali sono stati individuati, mediante failure analysis, i meccanismi di usura dominanti. Per ciascuno di essi sono state studiate soluzioni migliorative sulla base di prove tribologiche di laboratorio. Nella realizzazione di maglie per macchine movimentazione terra sono ampiamente utilizzati i tradizionali acciai da bonifica. La possibilità di utilizzare i nuovi microlegati a medio tenore di carbonio, consentirebbe una notevole semplificazione del ciclo produttivo e benefici in termini di costi. Una parte della tesi ha riguardato lo studio del comportamento tribologico di tali acciai. E’ stato anche affrontato lo studio tribologico di motori idraulici, con l’obiettivo di riuscire a migliorarne la resistenza ad usura e quindi la vita utile. Sono state eseguite prove a banco, per valutare i principali meccanismi di usura, e prove di laboratorio atte a riprodurre le reali condizioni di utilizzo, valutando tecniche di modificazione superficiale che fossero in grado di ridurre l’usura dei componenti. Sono state analizzate diverse tipologie di rivestimenti Thermal Spray in termini di modalità di deposizione (AFS-APS) e di leghe metalliche depositate (Ni,Mo,Cu/Al). Si sono infine caratterizzati contatti tribologici nel settore del packaging, dove l’utilizzo di acciai inox austenitici è in alcuni casi obbligatorio. L’acciaio inossidabile AISI 316L è ampiamente utilizzato in applicazioni in cui siano richieste elevate resistenze alla corrosione, tuttavia la bassa resistenza all’usura, ne limitano l’impiego in campo tribologico. In tale ambito, è stata analizzata una problematica tribologica relativa a macchine automatiche per il dosaggio di polveri farmaceutiche. Sono state studiate soluzioni alternative che hanno previsto sia la completa sostituzione dei materiali della coppia tribologica, sia l’individuazione di tecniche di modificazione superficiale innovative quali la cementazione a bassa temperatura anche seguita dalla deposizione di un rivestimento di carbonio amorfo idrogenato a-C:H
