Tribology Considerations Regarding the Replacement of The Olc45 Material,Without Heat Treatment, with OL52 in Order to Improve the Product Conveyor Rollersupport Pin

The experimental approach to the galling process of the materials used in machinery industry is a very important point in determining the durability of the contact surfaces of two materials. This paper is an experimental study designed to analyze the contact surface of a metallic material such as OL52, and also the wear of the material after the application of force. For the study there was used a test stand which has attached a weight, sliding on a certain ruler, an electric motor and a dial indicator which can identify the amperage value. There were used charts, graphics, and also photographic images and corresponding tables
