Abstract
Objectives. The development of technological methods with the purpose of increasing the structural strength of defense engineering products can be carried out by creating new methods for obtaining and processing parts or improving traditional methods based on an integrated (synergistic) approach. The article presents a complex method for surface treatment of parts and assessment of the hardness and surface roughness of the initial workpiece from alloys of the Al–Mg system to improve the quality of manufacturing the module cases of the MSP-418K product related to electronic warfare devices.Methods. This approach consists in the vision of a metallic material as a system subjected to a chain of technological impacts in the process of chemical, thermodynamic, and mechanical interaction of its components. The workpieces were obtained by metal pressure treatment according to various schemes and temperature conditions Then they were processed with a blade tool using a dynamometer. The resulting cut was examined using a metallographic method along the entire end face from the outer surface to the center of the sample of workpieces.Results. Experiments were carried out for the case of Al–Mg alloys. It made it possible to reveal the relationship between the parameters of the change in the structure of the material being processed and the stability of the cutting process, as well as the quality of the surface during finishing turning.Conclusions. The proposed technological solutions based on a synergistic approach provided a balanced improvement in material parameters by eliminating the shortcomings of the original semi-finished product. The obtained experimental data allowed concluding the deformation of workpieces according to complex schemes at low temperature has a beneficial effect on the machinability of the metal material, ordering the structure and improving the quality of the surface of the parts. Using a synergistic approach, it became possible to correct the poor technological heredity of material properties obtained in previous operations: the surface quality of the workpieces due to the continuity of the processed material and the strength properties of parts for critical and especially critical purposes were improved. The existing technological process for manufacturing the “petal” part was changed in practice using an integrated method, which made it possible to improve its technological and technical characteristics.
