Question

In no less than one hundred fifty words, explain how microstructures reduce friction within fluid power systems. Mention some of the benefits of designing with microstructures.

Answer 1

Microstructures reduce friction on the functional surface.                                                                

Explanation:

• The functional surface on the microstructures reduces the friction. Below the functional surface, the layer surface will be there. It also reduces friction.
• The microstructures on the functional surface act as an oil reservoir and it produces the oil.  For low structures, it generates a hydrodynamic lubrication film. It improves the speed of low sliding frictions.
• Using the fluid power systems we can produce accurate microstructures. The fluid will help to produce accurate structures.
• The benefits of designing microstructures are we can see the structure and produce it easily. It gives a precise and accurate structure when used with it.
