When processing 45 steel, a significant reduction in contact and average temperature in the cutting zone is ensured by a combination of tribological and deformation indicators when using TiN + ZrN and ZrN + (Ti,Zr)N + TiN compositions. When turning 12Kh18N10T stainless steel, the presence of coatings on carbide inserts had a lesser effect on the course of deformation processes. The main effect of modifying the working surfaces of the tool is to change the thickness of the zone of secondary plastic deformations and to reduce the length of contact between the chips and the rake face. In this case, the greatest effect in reducing surface temperatures due to the influence on the complex of tribostrain indicators and enhancing the thermodissipative capabilities of the contact zone is demonstrated by ZrN and ZrN + (Ti,Zr)N + TiN coatings.

The heat resistance of the coatings was studied for 100 h at a temperature of 700°C in air. The study of the mechanical properties of the coatings includes testing for microhardness under a load of 0.5 N and wear in the dry friction mode under a load of 25 N. According to X-ray diffraction analysis, the coating composition is dominated by ferrochrome and a small amount of aluminum oxide. According to EDS analysis, the element distribution in the coating is uniform throughout the coating thickness with a chromium concentration of about 60 at %, iron, 30 at %, and aluminum, 3.4 at %. The results indicate a uniform distribution of fine particles of aluminum oxide in the volume of the deposited layer.

The high-frequency component, in particular roughness, is extracted by means of wavelet transform for frequency components separation and homomorphic filtration for compensation of low-frequency distortion caused by nonuniform illumination of test surface. Segmentation of the high-frequency texture component consists in formation of a binary image using the texture descriptors derived from the gray-level co-occurrence matrix as the segmentation threshold. The proposed technique and algorithm are approved in applications to defect detection for a simulated surface, for real ground surface of hardened steel, and for surfaces of carbon fiber reinforced plastic composite.
