Abstract

The effectiveness of boric acid as lubricant has been evaluated in ring forging and deep drawing operations. The elapsed lay-by time between boric acid coating preparation and forming operation has significant influence on the friction factor. Fresh surfaces provide least friction since longer lay-by time permits absorption of moisture from the environment and tend to increase friction. Forging speed has no effect on the performance of boric acid lubricant. The average of peak forces obtained with tools having different surface coatings indicated that the hardness of the coating also has no effect on the effectiveness of the boric acid lubricant. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.
