Popis:	In this study, an attempt has been made to investigate the wear characteristics of aluminium (Al) 6063 alloy reinforced with Al2O3/SiC/Al2O3 + SiC particles of double particle size (DPS) and triple particle size (TPS). The hybrid Al-metal matrix composites (MMC’s) were prepared by using a synergistic combination of fused deposition modeling and V-process assisted stir casting and wear performance was examined on pin-on disc tester. The outcome of this study reveals that DPS-based Al-MMC’s with hybrid reinforcement of Al2O3 and SiC exhibit better wear characteristic. In this case study, overall 6% improvement in wear resistance was observed at proposed parametric settings. The results have been supported by photomicrographs, which confirmed the presence of Al2O3 and SiC contributing towards the improved wear property of the hybrid Al-MMC’s.
