Study of the wear resistance of hardened harrows of agricultural machines

Abstract

The conducted research is devoted to the analysis of the wear resistance of materials used in reinforcing coatings of working bodies of agricultural machines subjected to friction under abrasive action in soil conditions. The aim of the study was to determine the degree of wear of the hardened teeth of the disc under the load of their impact on the soil in real operating conditions. The disk of a toothed harrow, which is a hardened working body of agricultural machinery, was used as an object of research. The individual teeth of this disc were the test samples. To increase the wear resistance of the teeth, a variety of reinforcing coatings were applied. The results of the study made it possible to comparatively evaluate the effectiveness of various reinforcing coatings and identify their effect on the wear resistance of the teeth of the disc. This study provides important data for further improvement of materials and technologies in agricultural engineering in order to increase the durability and efficiency of working bodies.
