AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies are insufficient for the rapid, low-cost, and accurate prediction of friction noise in engineering plastic friction pairs during startup or extremely low-speed operation in the industrial sector, and conventional methods are prone to omissions or misjudgments.
A dual-criteria testing method of low-speed start-up and continuous step acceleration is adopted. The transient friction coefficient and Stribek curve are measured by a friction and wear testing machine. The friction noise risk is predicted by combining the difference between dynamic and static friction coefficients and the friction coefficient-relative velocity slope.
It enables accurate identification of noise from engineering plastic friction pairs, avoids the failure of single-mechanism diagnosis and dependence on complex equipment, and provides a standardized and practical noise prediction tool.
