description Abstract Laser micro-texture preparation technology significantly excels in micro-texture processing, yet there has been scant reported research on utilizing this technology for micro-texture processing and texture morphology control on the surface of wheat mill rolls. The aim was to ascertain the ideal laser preparation process parameters for the creation of groove-shaped micro-textures on the surface of the chilled alloy cast iron, serving as the surface layer material of the wheat mill roll. An experiment was conducted using a nanosecond pulsed fiber laser to explore the impact of laser power, scanning times, scanning velocity, and pulse frequency on the morphology and dimensions of the groove-shaped micro-textures. It was found that with laser power set at 7 W, 15 scanning times, a pulse frequency of 35 kHz, and a scanning speed of 500 mm/s, the desired microgroove can be successfully fabricated on the surface of the mill roll. The findings of this study offer insights for the surface modification of critical components in grain and oil machinery and equipment through the application of laser micro-texturing technology.
