Power parameters of the process of hardening of cylindrical parts by a toroidal roller by the method of surface plastic deformation

Abstract

A theoretical study of the influence of various technological factors on the force parameters of the hardening process of a cylindrical blank by a method of surface plastic deformation was performed. Based on the approximate model of plastic deformation propagation, an engineering technique has been developed that allows one to specify the force regimes of the surface hardening process with a toroidal roller, taking into account the required degree of deformation of the hardened layer, taking into account the mutual influence of the geometric parameters of the workpiece, the deforming roller and the required depth of cold work. The results of the theoretical study are in good agreement with the known experimental data and can be used in the development of technological operations for hardening machine parts by rolling in rollers or balls. © 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd.
