Application of Fuzzy Logic Model for Study the Wear Behavior of Chrome Coating by Physical Vapour Deposition (PVD)

This paper deals with innovative tactic for analysis wear behavior of coating by means of fuzzy logic. The Coatings with Thickness of 10µm Were Physical vapour Deposited from Mixture of Different Powder under the Controlled Environment of Process Gas (N2), Current, and Voltage, Temperature & Time (Heating, Bombardment, and Coating). Pin-on disc troibometer was used to conduct the experiment with varying load, sliding velocity for a particular time and distance experimental design is used for analyzing the performance measures such as wear loss, and frictional force by using fuzzy logic in order to obtain minimum wear and frictional force. The results indicate that increasing of sliding velocity the specific wear rate is decreasing.
