Predicting changes in surface roughness caused by friction is important for assessing product quality and surface suitability for varnishing or painting. This study investigated the effects of lubricant pressure and viscosity on the roughness parameters of DC03 steel sheets after friction testing.
Predicting changes in the surface roughness caused by friction allows the quality of the product and the suitability of the surface for final treatments of varnishing or painting to be assessed. The results of changes in the surface roughness of DC03 steel sheets after friction testing are presented in this paper. Strip drawing tests with a flat die and forced oil pressure lubrication were carried out. The experiments were conducted under various contact pressures and lubricant pressures, and lubrication was carried out using various oils intended for deep-drawing operations. Multilayer perceptrons (MLPs) were used to find relationships between friction process parameters and other parameters (Sa, Ssk and Sku). The following statistical measures of contact force were used as inputs in MLPs: the average value of contact force, standard deviation, kurtosis and skewness. Many analyses were carried out in order to find the best network. It was found that the lubricant pressure and lubricant viscosity most significantly affected the value of the roughness parameter, Sa, of the sheet metal after the friction process. Increasing the lubricant pressure reduced the average roughness parameter (Sa). In contrast, skewness (Ssk) increased with increasing lubrication pressure. The kurtosis (Sku) of the sheet surface after the friction process was the most affected by the value of contact force and lubricant pressure.
