Due to its better strength and modulus characteristics, a continuous fibre made of carbon fibre (CF) in the shape of a rod was employed as reinforcement. Using stir casting liquid metallurgy, a carbon fibre rod reinforced aluminium 6061 alloy metal matrix composite material was created. Metal matrix composite materials made of aluminium are lightweight. Metal matrix composites bonded with carbon fibre were the subject of very little study (MMC). To increase wettability, electroless nickel deposition was applied to carbon fibre rods (2mm and 3mm in diameter). SEM (scanning electron microscopy) and EDAX (energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy) studies were used to confirm the efficacy of electroless nickel coating on carbon fibre rods. Nickel electroplating was used to increase the thickness of the nickel coating even further. Nickel-coated carbon fibre rods were placed in a circle within a cast iron mould. At 600–700 C, molten 6061 aluminium alloy that had been completely degassed was poured into a cast iron mould. The improvement of mechanical and tribological qualities is always a requirement for technical development in the automotive industry. For density testing, bulk and microhardness tests, friction and wear tests, specimens of synthetic composites (11.11% vol. CF and 25% vol. CF reinforcement) were generated. In compared to aluminium 6061 alloy, synthetic composite has lower density, greater bulk and microhardness, a lower coefficient of friction, and a lower rate of wear.
