Modeling of the Processes of Glow Discharge Plasma Effect on Work Surfaces Using Intelligent Instrumentation Support

The conditions of modeling the processes of the impact of glow discharge plasma on the working surfaces of a complex-profile tool to provide a given quality of tools in the effectuation of author's technological processes are reputed. The mechanism of optimal impact of glow discharge plasma on the surface of a complex profile is revealed. The sequence of alternation of technological conversion and their duration for the different impact of the glow discharge plasma is established. This ensures the formation of a given thermodynamic structure to a given depth of the near-surface layer. The structure of an automatic system for oversee and controlling glow discharge plasma generators has been developed. The automatic control system reasonable on uninterrupted oversee implements high reproducibility of the hardening quality of metalworking tools. This system ensures the stabilization of the technological indicator of the processing process and, if required, allows surgical intervention in the course of plasma exposure. At the moment, a boost in the effectiveness of controlling decision support is implemented over the period the formation of glow discharge plasma at technological. The control system, built thanks to efficient modeling of plasma exposure, allows oversee the formation of a thermodynamic structure. The thermodynamic structure created on the working surfaces of the cutting wedge with a small corner of grind and featuring a complex profile is implemented without altering the shape and size.
