Description
Summary:Crankshaft translates reciprocating linear piston motion into rotation in internal combustion engine. So it receives complex combination of stresses. Therefore, crankshaft remanufacturing process is designed thoroughly with special attention to fatigue and tribological performance. Experimental study is carried out in order to show that UNSM (ultrasonic nanocrystal surface modification) technology which will be used as final surface treatment after 0.2 mm depth surface grinding, could restore original fatigue strength and tribological performance. Furthermore the feasibility steady to replace conventional overlay welding in crankshaft remanufacturing process by UNSM (ultrasonic nanocrystal surface modification) technology is carried out. Effects of UNSM technology are established through rotary bending test, rolling contact fatigue (RCF) test and wear simulation test. The test specimen used SCM435 material of crankshaft and commercial bush. The test result showed fatigue limit improved by 30% and RCF life increased by 40% for UNSM treated specimen. And friction coefficient decreased by 24% and wear amount decreased by 85%.
