Abstract

Coating adhesion strength is one of the most critical issues in magnetron sputtering technique. Therefore; investigating the influence of coating parameters on improving adhesion strength is highly essential. In this research work, an experimental evaluation was conducted to explore the fretting fatigue life of multilayer Cr-CrN coated AL7075-T6 alloy specimens with higher adhesion strength to substrate. PVD magnetron sputtering technique was used for coating purpose. A fuzzy rule-based system was established to investigate how to achieve higher adhesion of Cr-CrN coating on AL7075-T6 with respect to changes in input process parameters, DC power, nitrogen flow rate and temperature for Fretting Fatigue Life Enhancement.
