About

Xu Xu is a researcher specializing in advanced surface engineering and remanufacturing technologies, with a particular focus on high-velocity arc spraying for industrial applications. Their major contribution lies in developing a 6R robot-based automatic high-velocity arc spraying system designed to restore worn diesel engine crankshafts, addressing the dominant failure mechanism of journal wear. By designing a complete remanufacturing process for engine crankshafts, Xu Xu has provided a practical, automated solution that enhances the durability and service life of critical automotive components. Although their most-cited paper, "High Velocity Arc Spraying for Automotive Industry" (2012), has garnered 2 citations, it represents foundational work in integrating robotics with thermal spray technology for precision repair. This research bridges the gap between laboratory innovation and industrial application, offering cost-effective and sustainable alternatives to component replacement. Xu Xu’s work is particularly relevant for students and researchers interested in tribology, surface coatings, and sustainable manufacturing, demonstrating how automated spraying systems can revolutionize the remanufacturing of high-value engine parts in the automotive sector.
