Brake Disc Provided with Protection from Wear and Corrosion and Method for Production Thereof
20230046519 · 2023-02-16 ·

The present invention concerns the field of vehicle technology and industrial-plant technology and relates to a brake disc provided with protection from wear and corrosion and to a method for production thereof. The known solutions have the disadvantage that the coating for providing protection from corrosion and wear is applied to the frictional surfaces of the brake disc and is rubbed off straight away during the first braking operations. The present invention addresses the problem of providing a brake disc that has improved and durable protection from corrosion and wear. The significantly improved properties of the brake disc in terms of protection from corrosion and wear are achieved according to the invention by at least the region of the frictional surfaces (2) having an AlSi-based diffusion layer (3), which has a layer thickness of 0.1 mm to 0.6 mm and is formed in the process of interaction with the steel or grey cast iron of the metal main body (1). The brake disc according to the invention can be used for example in vehicles or as a braking system for industrial brakes or in wind turbines.
