The paper presents an innovative method for joining Al alloy sheets and polymer fibre-reinforced composites by thermal drilling. A proposal for modifying the joint geometry by reverse drilling with a larger diameter tool is presented. The proposed modification demonstrated a statistically significant increase in the failure energy of the resulting joints.

The contribution is focused on the analysis of the surface roughness after applying the conversion layer using phosphating. In the experiment, uncoated deep-drawn steel DC 04 was used as the base material. During the application of the conversion layer, changes in surface roughness were studied with respect to the phosphating time, which was 3, 5 and 10 minutes. The achieved results provide information for other technological operations such as creating joints by gluing, where the correct anchoring of the glue is important for sufficient adhesion to the surface.

The article deals with determinatin the optimum parameters for thermal drilling of selected Al, Mg and steel alloys to be subsequently used for joining with thermoplastic matrix composites reinforced with bidirectional continuous fibers. The optimum thermal drilling parameters will be considered to be those which produce a bushing of sufficient length and thickness to penetrate the composite material to a thickness of 1.5 mm.

The contribution is focused on the analysis of the roughness of metal surfaces after applying a conversion layer using phosphating. The types of basic materials is used in the experiment hot-dip galvanized microalloyed steel HX340LAD+Z. During the application of the conversion layer, changes in surface roughness were studied with respect to the phosphating time, which was 3, 5 and 10 minutes. The paper deals with the evaluation of the relationship between the individual roughnesses parameters of pre-treated surfaces using correlation analysis. Based on the measured roughness values on the surfaces, the standard of statistical significance of the correlation between the observed parameters was determined from them. The achieved results provide information for other technological operations such as the creation of adhesive joints, where the correct anchoring of the adhesive is important for load bearing capacity of joints.

The main goal of this contribution is study the microgeometry of blasted surfaces. The aim is to design suitable microgeometric characteristics for the description of pretreated surfaces, experimentally verify the influence of blasting agents of various shapes and sizes on the microgeometry of metal surfaces. The following types of evaluation are used to meet this goal: 2D roughness determinat ion and profilograms, 3D surface visualization and surface volume determination. The results of the experimental part will contribute to the optimization of technological parameters of the tearing process.

Surface quality and its evaluation is currently a very important part of surface preparation for all types of technologies involved in surface formation. Knowledge of the new surface formation mechanism is of great importance from the point of view of production, because it allows to understand the nature and properties of the newly created surface and thus gives the opportunity to both improve the processes used and create a smooth process. surfaces. Therefore, any changes that occur in the surface layer of the component can be considered as changes in the surface quality. The paper deals with the expansion of current knowledge in the evaluation of metal surfaces microgeometry in terms of current trends.

The article is focused on the research of the influence of different blasting means on the surface of the titanium alloy Ti6Al4V, which was made by the sintering technology of layered metal powders (DMLS) in terms of microgeometry. The resulting microgeometry values of the titanium alloy placed on the platform in different sectors. Individual sectors had different laser power settings. The blasting was carried out at a constant pressure of 6 bar. Samples were then subjected to roughness measurement by contact method in accordance with STN EN ISO 4287. Individual parameters were subsequently statistically evaluated. A 3D topography of roughness of individual blasted materials was made.
