The surface of machine elements is modified to enhance their mechanical properties, with ceramic-metal composite coatings being applied to increase durability. Nickel and iron are commonly used as base materials, with Al2O3 serving as tough particles. Thermal spraying is a widely used method for applying alloy and composite coatings. However, post-processing is necessary to achieve the desired surface quality.
The surface of machine elements is changed to improve their mechanical properties. Ceramic-metal composite coatings are mainly used to increase the durability of machine parts. Therefore, new materials are constantly searched for application in the future development of metal and ceramic composites. The nickel and iron elements are usually used as a base and Al2O3 as tough particles. The welding technology for applying alloy and composite coatings is widely used. The common technology used to apply composite coatings is thermal spraying. It is a simple technology and very useful for the production or regeneration of machines. The surface layer is very rough and porous after applying the coating by thermal spraying. In order to obtain the proper surface quality of alloy and composite coatings, after-machining should be used. Many parts of machines strive to achieve an accurate surface. Therefore, a certain roughness is often required. The arithmetic mean of the ordinates of the surface roughness profile was (Ra = 0.16-1.25 mu m). The article presents the influence of finishing on the roughness of the surface layer of the coating. After plastic working and machining, the roughness of the surface layer of the coating was reduced. However, it can be seen that, after plastic working, there is a strengthening of the surface layer of the coating and most of the pores were closed.
