PT - JOURNAL ARTICLE AU - Svoboda, Petr AU - Jopek, Miroslav TI - The Effect of Strain Rate on the Friction Coefficient DP - 2024 Apr 30 TA - Manufacturing Technology Journal PG - 289--293 VI - 24 IP - 2 IS - 12132489 AB - The Male and Cockroft ring compression test is one of the methods used to determine the coefficient of friction in forming. This method can be used to determine the coefficient of friction without the need to measure the force. This paper describes the results of the Male and Cockroft ring compres-sion test for the Hardox 450 material at different strain rates. The experiment was performed on ZD40 hydraulic press and CFA-80 pneumatic die hammer at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering of Brno University of Technology. The test results were recorded in a calibration diagram. The results show that the strain rate has a significant effect on the coefficient of friction, specifically such that as the strain rate increases, the coefficient of friction decreases.
