Abstract Production costs and product quality in manufacturing depend directly on tool life in cold and hot machining of metals and alloys. The types of surface failure in tools are considered in the present work. The potential for increasing their wear resistance by electrospark coating deposition is noted. The dependence of the relative coating thickness on the relative limiting carrying capacity of the coating is determined for surface hardening of forged tools. The influence of the electrode composition on the resulting surface properties is analyzed.

通过电火花沉积提高锻造工具的耐磨性

摘要 制造中的生产成本和产品质量直接取决于金属和合金冷加工和热加工的刀具寿命。在目前的工作中考虑了工具表面失效的类型。注意到通过电火花涂层沉积提高其耐磨性的潜力。对于锻造工具的表面硬化，确定相对涂层厚度对涂层的相对极限承载能力的依赖性。分析了电极组成对所得表面性质的影响。
