Wear is the degradation of material under plethora of service conditions and is considered as one of the major issue of the material used in engineering. So far, various types of wear have been recognized such as erosive wear, surface fatigue, fretting wear, adhesive wear, abrasive wear and sliding wear. Wear by abrasion accounts for more than 50% of the wear failures occurring in industries. Hard abrasive particles penetrate the components and cause damage in the form of material loss. The components of machines working undersevere conditions the soil engaging part of the earth-moving machinery, and various agricultural implements experience sever wear. The wear in agricultural equipments and tillage is the main problem. For combating with wear problem various methods have also been developed such as hardfacing, cryogenic treatment, coating and heat treatment of components, which are chosen on the basis of various conditions under which the component has to perform the desired function. Hardfacing and heat treatment is commonly used to resistthis failure, also considered as most appropriate and economically sound process for improving the life of tillage tool at farming level. In the present paper author as made the effort to review various types of wear and remedial measures |
