A gear is a part of a machine that has a very complex shape so that it requires special care and expertise in the manufacturing process. Powder metallurgy offers an efficient manufacturing process for the production of these complex machining parts. In this study, Cr metal powder was selected to increase the hardness properties of spur gears made from iron (Fe) powder. Doping Cr by 0%; 0.5%; 10%, 1.5% and 2.0% will be added in gear manufacturing. Water is used as a binder with a ratio of 1:15 which is then packed by 15,000 kg or 15 tons then heated or sintered at a temperature of 1200 oC for 1 hour. The shrinkage ratio of the sample to the sintering treatment averaged 4.6%. 0.2 kg of load applied to the Vickers hardness test. Vickers hardness values obtained were 60, 77, 90, 184 and 211 respectively for the Cr doping of 0%; 0.5%; 10%, 1.5% and 2.0%. From these data it is found that the addition of the element Cr increases the hardness properties of iron gears. The hardness value shown is still too small, this is because there is still a lot of porosity generated in the sintering process because it is not in a vacuum condition.
Roda gigi adalah bagian dari mesin yang memiliki bentuk sangat kompleks sehingga diperlukan ketelitian dan keahlian khusus didalam proses pembuatannya. Metalurgi serbuk menawarkan suatu proses pembuatan yang efisien guna menghasilkan bagian-bagian permesinan yang kompleks tersebut. Pada penelitian ini dipilih serbuk logam Cr untuk meningkatkan sifat kekerasan dari roda gigi lurus berbahan dasar serbuk besi (Fe). Doping Cr sebesar 0%; 0,5%; 10%, 1,5% dan 2,0% akan ditambahakan pada pembuatan roda gigi. Air digunakan sebagai pengikat dengan ratio 1:15 yang selanjutnya dikompaksi sebesar 15,000 kg atau 15 ton diteruskan dengan dipanaskan atau sintering pada suhu 1200 oC selama 1 jam. Ratio penyusutan sampel terhadap perlakuan sintering rata-rata 4.6%. Sebesar 0.2 kg beban yang terapkan pada pengujian kekerasan Vickers. Nilai kekerasan Vickers diperoleh sebesar 60, 77, 90, 184 dan 211 masing-masing untuk doping Cr sebesar 0%; 0,5%; 10%, 1,5% dan 2,0%. Dari data tersebut didapat bahwa penambahan unsur Cr meingkatkan sifat kekerasan pada roda gigi besi. Nilai kekerasan yang ditunjukkan masih terlalu kecil hal ini disebabkan oleh masih banyak porositas yang ditimbulkan pada proses sintering karena tidak dalam kondisi vakum.
