Abstract

In order to verify the friction-minimising potential of machined micro-dimples, they were cut into thrust bearing rings; consequently, their functional properties were determined on a ring-on-disc tribometer setup for planar contact with large surface coverage. Furthermore the tribology results of the machined micro-dimples were consequently compared with experimental testing results of micro-dimples that were fabricated with other manufacturing methods.
