PERCOBAAN PENGERASAN PERMUKAAN KOMPONEN GERUS ATTRITION MILL

Yusuf M

Abstract

Untuk dapat menggerus material yang cukup keras, komponen gerus attrition mill perlu memiliki kekerasan yang cukup tinggi. Hal itu dapat diperoleh dengan menggunakan bahan berkekerasan tinggi atau bahan (baja) biasa yang permukaannya diperkeras. Salah satunya adalah dengan pemberian lapis khrom. Ada dua pilihan yang ditawarkan untuk pemberian lapis khrom ini, yaitu dengan cara lapis listrik atau pelapisan difusi. Percobaan menunjukkan  bahwa  kedua  cara  memberi  kekerasan  permukaan  yang  jauh  lebih  tinggi  dibanding  logam dasarnya. Hasil lapis listrik memberi kekerasan antara 737 hingga 852 BHN, sementara pengerasan difusi dapat mengeraskan permukaan baja hingga 1100 BHN. Daya lekat hasil lapis difusi juga sangat baik karena terjadi gradasi fasa dan kekerasan antara lapisan putih (khrom), lapisan difusi hingga ke logam dasar, sedangkan pada hasil lapis listrik terjadi perubahan menyolok antara lapis khrom dengan logam dasarnya. Secara teknis metode lapis difusi lebih dianjurkan untuk pengerasan komponen gerus attrition mill.


Abstract

In order to be able to grind a relatively hard material, the working component of an attrition mill should have a good strength and hardness. To obtain such a component, it can be done by using a special high quality steel or by using an ordinary carbon steel with surface hardening. One of the hardening method is the surface chromizing. There are two methods of surface chromizing, namely the electroplating method and the diffusion (pack cementation or case hardening) method. Both methods can produce better surface hardness compare to its base metals. The product of electroplated hard chrome can improve its surface hardness to 737 to 852 VHN, while the product of diffusion hardening can reach more than 1100 VHN. The adhesion of diffusion surface also better than the product of electroplated hard chrome because of the existence of diffusion layer between the chrome layer and the base metal. On the other hand, the electroplating product give a drastic different layer between the chrome layer and the base metal. From the technical point of view the diffusion method is more recommended for the surface hardening of the attrition mill working components
