摘要:

In order to apply thin film heads to digital video cassette recorders, wear behavior, machinability of head materials, and level difference of the heads were evaluated. The tests, performed with metal evaporated tapes, were divided into two stages. First, wear rate and machinability of individual materials were evaluated. It was found that adhesive wear was dominant for every material. Wear damage was especially-severe for metal magnetic films. Machinability was satisfactory for most bulk materials except for those with a hardness of more than 1000 kgf/mm2, ZrO2ceramics and devitalized glass. Secondly, wear damage and level difference were evaluated using model heads. After the test, a number of flows were formed on sliding surfaces, mainly on the film surfaces, indicating that abrasive wear occurred. With bulk material of larger wear rate, the level difference reached the final value faster and its deviation was smaller. With Co-Zr-Nb magnetic metal and an Al2O3protective layer, the level difference was less than 20 nm using CaTiO3or ZrO2-Ta2O5, bulk substrates.Presented as a Society of Tribologists and Lubrication Engineers paper at the STLE/ASME Tribology Conference in New Orleans, Louisiana, October 24–27, 1993
