Site of Special Technology
Technologies based the vacuum-arc application of coatings are widely used in modern machine-building industry, instrument-making industry and other industries due to the ability to form coatings intended for various purposes (strengthening, wear-resistant, protective coatings etc.) with properties that cannot be often achieved by using other methods of coating application. JSC “FED” developed multiple-component, multi-layered, superhard, anti-friction, wear resistant coatings to enhance performance of various parts used in machine engineering and engine-building in terms of wear and fatigue in corrosion environments, etc. On the basis of these coatings, the company developed more than 30 technologies for application of multi-layered low-temperature (≤ 150–200 °C) coatings to improve reliability and service life of friction pairs in mechanical engineering industry.
Coating Avinit C 320 and Avinit C 310 and technology of their application are patented in Ukraine, Russia and the European Union. The developed technologies are introduced into mass production at JSC “FED”. Using of developed coatings and methods of their application allow to increase the service life and reliability of units produced and developed now by several times. For example, the use of slide valves coated with Avinit C 320 in the hydraulic units allowed to increase their life from 50 h to 4000 h. The use of coatings Avinit C 310 in friction pairs of the units increased their resource from 200 h to 2,000 h.
The bay developed and patented technology for application of coatings Avinit C 320 and Avinit C 310 using vacuum-arc method to improve reliability and the service life of friction pairs in machine-building. The use of developed coatings allows increasing the service life and reliability of units manufactured by the company by several times. The use of vacuum plasma precision nitriding allows to obtain a uniformly hardened nitrided layer without deformation of produc...ts while preservation of initial geometrical dimensions of parts with an accuracy of 1.2 microns that allows avoiding finish grinding. The available complex of automated equipment for vacuum heat treatment allows implementing high-treating technologies, quenching with the use of gas cooling, tempering, and low-temperature treatment.The installation is intended for experimental elaboration of new technologies and improvement of the existing technologies of ion-plasma material surface treatment in plasma of high density glow discharge initiated in hollow cathode. The installation ensures the possibility to process material surfaces in high density glow discharge plasma in gaseous media of different composition (argon, nitrogen, carbon-containing gases and mixtures of these gases), including inte...rnal cavities and channels of the certain size. The use of high density glow discharge plasma in the processes of ion nitriding, carbonitriding allows reducing the times, as compared with gas furnace technologies, required for formation of hardened layers with a thickness of 0.3–0.4 mm, while maintaining almost the same size of the processed products and preventing the formation of brittle phases on their surface. Therefore, the development of new technology for surface treatment in high density plasma is one of the topical areas of improvement of the modern technology in some sectors of industrial production.The installation is intended for experimental elaboration of new technologies for application of coatings made of conductive and non-conductive materials with RF-magnetron target sputtering. The installation ensures the possibility to apply coatings of different metals and their various compounds, including non-conductive ones and non-metals (carbon, PTFE, etc.). This allows using the installation for obtaining various coatings that are intended for various purposes...(protective, strengthening, wear-resistant, optical and other coatings) and have different composition and structure (mono-layered, multi-layered, including nano-layered and nano-structured one). Due to this diversity of coatings, the method of RF-magnetron target sputtering and technologies based on its use are among the most popular ones in many areas of modern production and development of new types of coatings and technologies of their production.The installation is intended for experimental elaboration of new technologies for applying metal and metal-carbide coatings based on molybdenum and tungsten by decomposing their carbonyls. The installation ensures the possibility to apply coatings with high uniformity in thickness on the surface of products with complex profiles, including blind holes and channels with L/d ˃˃ 1, where L is the channel length, and d is diameter of the channel. The gas-phase method us...ed for application of coatings is the unique method surpassing all other methods, including methods of electroplating of coatings. High hardness of molybdenum and tungsten, in particular their compounds with carbon, nitrogen (carbides, nitrides), high wear resistance and low coefficient of friction of these compounds during work in different pairs of friction and some other properties of these metals allow including coatings on their basis to a class of materials that are has the potential of using in various units and aggregates of modern machine-building, aircraft engineering and other fields of technology and production. Taking into account that molybdenum and tungsten are included in the chromium subgroup and the fact that, according to EU directive (RoHS), the use of “hexavalent” chromium (CrVI) is limited in the production of a long list of industrial products, development of gas-phase technology for application of coatings on the basis of molybdenum, tungsten and their compounds can be in some cases considered as an alternative to widely used technology of application of chromium coatings by electrolytic method.Argon arc welding with non-consumable electrode are welding is mostly used for connecting carbon steels, alloy steels and non-ferrous metals. For small thicknesses, arc welding can be performed without any welding filler. This method of welding ensures good quality of formed welds, allows to maintain accurately the depth of metal penetration that is very important when welding the thin metal under condition of one-side access to the product surface. Welding with with non-consumable electrode is one of the main methods used to connect titanium and aluminum alloys.This method allows joining both the thinnest parts with a thickness of up to 0.02 mm and parts with a thickness of up to 20 mm that are made of different metals and alloys, and combinations thereof. This method is used to weld wires, rods of round, cross-shaped sections, profiles, sheets, meshes, etc. It is most often used for welding structures made of soft steel, stainless steel, all light alloys and brass. The advantage of this method of welding is related to the...fact that there is no need for welding materials (electrodes, fillers, fluxes, etc.), small residual deformation, simplicity and usability of the welding machine, neat joints (the virtual absence of the weld), and environmental friendliness.Electron-beam welding ensures the following advantages as compared to other methods of welding: - welds without shrinkage and deformation of welded parts due to the low heat supply and high speed of welding; - vacuum welding does not only prevent oxidation of the metal in the welding zone, but performs degassing of the weld pool metal; - the possibility to weld a wide range of dissimilar metals with some materials that cannot be welded using other methods; - the...possibility to perform welding in places and positions that are not accessible for other methods of welding through a very small diameter of the electron beam and a considerable distance of its focusing; - electron beam welding is an autogenous process and, therefore, it does not require fillers or fluxes that allows avoiding many of metallurgical problems. Electron beam welding installations used at our production facilities ensures all the advantages of electron beam welding and allows preforming up-to-date high-precision electron beam welding.Equipment of the EEB
