Development of a methodology for the formation of surface systems with programmable nanostructure parameters for effective use in modern manufacturing

The paper discusses the development and application of nanostructured surface systems for a wide range of applications. By programming the parameters of the CAA-PVD (Controled Accelerated Arc-PVD) Deposition process, it becomes possible to effectively control the performance properties of surface modifying systems and products with such systems. Modification of the surface properties of products such as cutting tools, friction pairs and medical implants provides an optimal combination of properties such as surface hardness and plasticity, high adhesion to the substrate and low adhesion to the counterbody material. The strict determinism of the process parameters allows it to be included in the automatic control system of modern manufacturing with significant energy savings and a high level of environmental safety.
