New opportunities for processing materials in strong magnetic field

Abstract

The article shows the most important results of new studies concerning the possibility of influencing the physical and mechanical indicators of the hardness of steel and carbide materials, presented in the form of dimensional samples and non-sharpened cutting tool inserts. The main differences in the process of volumetric hardening of articles made of magnetically permeable materials are presented - resonant vibrations with amplitudes commensurate with the subatomic dimensions of the hardened materials. Some results of metallographic studies confirming the structural changes in the material of steel samples are presented. The efficiency of resonant processing of materials in a uniform magnetic field of neodymium magnets has been confirmed.
