Analysis of Wear Using the Taguchi Method in TiSiNOS-Coated and Uncoated H13 Tool Steel
Source abstract
Abstract
Titanium–silicon oxynitride sulfite (TiSiNOS) is a coating material that is deposited on H13 tool steel using the scalable pulsed power plasma (S3P) technique, where the coating deposition is a hybrid process consisting of a mix of sputtering and arc evaporation. The maximum hardness and coating thickness measured on TiSINOS-coated H13 tool steel are 38 GPa and 3.1 µm, respectively. After implementing the L9 orthogonal array, nine samples were coated with TiSiNOS, which consists of the same properties. The nine coated and uncoated samples were tested separately based on the L9 pattern to achieve accurate results. The experimental results indicate that the wear loss can be reduced by minimizing the load at 25 N even if the temperature rises to 250 °C. SEM analysis reveals that the uncoated sample has higher wear loss when compared with the coated samples, and material pullout is visible from the uncoated sample. Based on these results, it can be concluded that TiSINOS coating in H13 tool steel helps in improving the tool life during the drilling process. Taguchi was used in this research to evaluate the wear behavior. The data observed from the experiment were analyzed using the Minitab tool. The most crucial factor is to determine the effects of process parameters. A higher temperature influenced the wear behavior of the tool.
