Popis: An accelerated testing procedure with a multi-pin die has been established for the study of the erosive wear of die materials and surface treatments in die casting applications, under production conditions. This test procedure utilizes the wear of core pins as a surrogate measure of die erosive wear, and is used to evaluate the efficacy of coatings and die surface treatments in reducing erosive wear in dies under actual production conditions. Metallic coatings of W, Mo, and Pt deposited on the test pins using the plasma source ion implantation technique (PSII) technology in the ion assisted deposition mode, were then evaluated for erosion resistance using this developed test procedure. The results of this evaluation on the effectiveness of these metallic coatings are presented here along with possible reasons for such coating behavior.
