Abstract
Microhardness of combined ZrN-Ni-Co-coatings is to 1,3–1,5 times more than microhardness of Ni-Со-coating on steel substrate and bare steel. Coatings alloy Ni-P obtained at a current density of 9 A/dm2 have a maximum value of microhardness greater than 2,9 times the value of the microhardness of the steel substrate. When cutting laminated chipboard by steel knives of milling tool with a Ni-Co, Ni-P and ZrN-Ni-Co-coatings, main type of surface wear of edges knives is abrasive. Pilot testing of tool modified with combined ZrN-Ni-Co-coatings at OJSC “Minskdrev” when cutting pine confirmed relevance of the tests carried out, showed an increase in durability period of cutters to 30% compared with bare tool.
