Abstract
This article presents the results of the experimental researches on nanostructured carbon-containing PVD coatings based on titanium and chromium (Cr/C; CrN/CNx, Ti/C; TiN/CNx) deposited on a disk Ø 20 × 5 mm made of steel ShKh15 (MX15). Coatings were obtained on the UNICOAT 600SL installation (Russia). In the course of the research, such parameters as coatings adhesion to the substrate, their hardness and elastic modulus, as well as friction coefficients were determined by using the indentation, scratch testing and tribological testing methods, respectively, on the CSM equipment (Switzerland). The low values of the friction coefficient (Cr/C − 0,02, Ti/C − 0,07; CrN/CNx - 0,15; TiN/CNx − 0,13) suggest that they are promising to be used in the friction pairs of the drive actuating mechanism, and the high hardness values (from 3,000 to 3,700 units on the HV scale) are promising in highly loaded drives under extreme operating conditions.
