Abstract

In this paper, precision hard turning is proposed for the finishing of the AISI 52100 bearing components to improve rolling contact fatigue life. This finishing process induces a homogenous microstructure at surface and subsurface layers. Fatigue life tests performed on a twin-disk machine show that rolling contact fatigue life increases as R_a value decreases. The bearing components reached 0.32 million cycles for R_a=0.25 μm and 5.2 million cycles for R_a=0.11 μm. In comparison, the bearing components achieved 1.2 million cycles with grinding (R_a=0.2 μm) and 3.2 million cycles with grinding followed by honing (R_a=0.05 μm) respectively.
