Abstract: A method for surface working a tribological coating of a supereutectic aluminum-silicon alloy or an aluminum-silicon composite material with a coating structure includes machining the surface dry, without lubricant, in a one-step process, with a cutting tool having a cutting material containing diamond. The surface treating may be followed by a one-step finish honing or one-step texturing process.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the surface working of a tribological coating of a supereutectic aluminum-silicon alloy or an aluminum-silicon composite material with a coating structure, wherein the surface is reworked after the production of the coating. Provision is made according to the invention that the surface is machined dry, without lubricant, in a one-step process, a cutting tool with a cutting material containing diamond being used. This can be followed by an additional working process. Preferably a combination process of dry machining and one-step finish honing or one-step texturing by radiation is provided.

Abstract: A method and a device for the precision turning of a workpiece made of a heat-treatable steel permits a dry hard precision turning of hardened workpiece surfaces without tempering. In order also to allow precision turning and hardening of unhardened workpiece surfaces which are simultaneous in terms of production time, use is made of the local temporary heating of the workpiece caused by machining. The workpiece surface is heated further locally by the action of a laser beam, in the region directly behind the cutter, up to the transformation temperature of the material to be machined via an optical fiber integrated in the tool. The surface is then self-quenched and, as a result, hardened close to the surface. At the same time, the surface temperature at the point of action of the laser beam can be recorded thermographically and, this actual temperature signal can be used to adjust the power of the laser beam so as to maintain the desired temperature.
