Abstract

The main goal of agriculture is to obtain products, but its processing is no less important. At processing enterprises, grinding and cutting are the most important technological process. (Research purpose) The research purpose is in analyzing the market of knives of processing machines, their pricing, resource and describing the economic efficiency of applying strengthening coatings. (Materials and methods) Authors used a digital method of searching through the Internet for enterprises that produce knives for processing machines, types of knives and their characteristics. (Results and discussion) Specialized knives are used for grinding products in the industrial plants. Since knives are a consumable item, the technology of their replacement is subject to requirements for the simplicity of the process, low cost and low labor cost. These requirements, together with the specific ones determined by the technology, form the design of the knives. The efficiency of the processing machine directly depends on the state of its working organs. Replacement of worn-out elements is accompanied by large labor costs, which leads to a decrease in labor productivity and to downtime of equipment in repair, and ultimately − to a decrease in the profit of the enterprise. (Conclusions) The hardening of knives by the borating method using high-frequency heating will increase the productivity of agricultural machinery and will give an economic effect up to 0.32 billion rubles due to an increase in the resource and a lower cost of manufacturing hardened knives compared to imported ones. By reducing the cost of domestic knives, you can get savings on one knife of 1960 rubles, provided that you refuse to purchase imported knives.
