Abstract

In this chapter, results of the investigation of manufacturing-morphology-property (MMP) relationships for radial shaft seals, with a special focus on the shaft countersurface of the seal, are presented. This includes experimental investigations of alternative manufacturing and micro structuring processes such as turning, micro grinding, micro milling, shot- and micro peening and lapping. Furthermore, the influence of metastable austenitic shaft materials, of the rubber material and fillers and of lubricants on wear, friction and function of sealing systems with radial shaft seals was also investigated.
