FORECASTING THE WEARING OF PLOUGHSHARES PARTS UNDER OPERATING CONDITIONS

摘要

This study presents an analysis of the process of wear of ploughshares subjected to different types of technological processing. The experiment was conducted under real-life operational conditions. Tests were performed on operating parts made of three types of steel and of steel enhanced by pad welding. Changes in the geometrical dimensions of an operating part that were implemented into the Holm-Archard model to verify its suitability by determining the wear of materials used under abrasive conditions were adopted as a measure of wear.
