In an industrial project concerning sliding bearings, a sliding pair was selected of high alloy steel vs. industrial grade DLC coated high alloy steel as a basis for an innovative design of high performance sliding bearings lubricated with a synthetic oil for use in geared transmission units. The development process required credible data on the ultimate resistance of the sliding pair to very high contact stress. An experimental evaluation was undertaken in ring-on-ring contact with an incremental semi-steady state input parameters increase. Due to restrictions in time, economy, and manufacturing, the number of specimen sets available was limited. A flexible approach to specimen use and load/velocity/time combinations was employed to deliver required test results within the available resource limitations and at constantly updated project detailed goals.
