| Popis: | Presented article is focused on the comparison of erosion efficiency on the surface treatment of ultrasonically enhanced PWJ (pulsating water jet) on different metal materials surfaces. Surfaces of EN X5CrNi18-10 stainless steel and EN-AW 6060 aluminum alloy were evaluated. Pulsating water jet technological factors were set to the following values: pressure was 70 MPa, circular nozzle diameter was 1.19 mm, traverse speed of cutting head was 100 mm s−1 (which is 200 impact for millimeter) for stainless steel and 660 mm s−1 (which is 30 impact per millimeter) for aluminum alloy. The evaluation was made based on the surface topography evaluation, evaluation of microstructure, and microhardness in the transverse cut. The results of the stainless steel surface evaluation show slight erosion of material, with creating microscopic craters. Subsurface deformation was found to a depth of a maximum of 200 μm. Hardness measurement shows 11% higher value of hardness under the affected area compared with a measurement in the center of the sample. From the findings, subsurface deformation strengthening of stainless steel with minimal influence of material surface can be assumed. Surface deformation of aluminum alloy is characterized by the formation of more pronounced depressions and less pronounced protrusions. Depressions were created by a combination of compression and tearing off material parts. A decrease in hardness value of 18% compared with a measurement in the center of the sample. In places of the first indent just below the disintegrated area (up to 600 μm deep), it is possible to assume the material plastic deformation, but the value of aluminum alloy tensile strength Rm is not exceeded. The experimental results from an aluminum alloy evaluation do not confirm the subsurface mechanical strengthening of the material. |
