Image Analysis of Wear Debris on Operating Condition of Lubricated Machine Surface

윤활운동면의 작동상태에 따른 마멸분 화상해석

This paper was undertaken to analyze the morphology of wear debris on operating condition of lubricated machine surfaces. The lubricating wear test was carried out under different experimental conditions using the wear test device was made in our laboritory and wear testing spcimen of the pin on disk type was rubbed in paraffine series base oil, by varying specimen, applied load, sliding distance. The four shape parameters (50% volumetric diameter, aspect, roundness and reflectivity) to describe morphology of wear debris have been developed and are outlined in the paper. A system using such techniques promises to obviate the need for subjective, human interpretation of particle morphology for machine condition monitoring.
