Laser structures to modify the coefficient of friction

Diamond and ceramic particles are widely regarded as the gold standard for high coefficients of friction, yet frequently necessitate the implementation of additional coatings or inserts. However, specific laser structures that do not require supplementary components offer a novel alternative. The pivotal consideration is the selection of the most appropriate structure to achieve the desired friction characteristics. Initial tests with laser structures demonstrate that they can attain results that are comparable to those of hard particles.
