Abstract

Damage to logging machines under operating conditions

The system analysis of types of damage of logging machines and their damage during operation is carried out. It is found that a significant impact on the machines reliability has mechanical energy and thermal energy. Mechanical energy affects all components and parts in the form of static and dynamic loads, which leads to the wear of mates, the emergence and development of fatigue cracks, plastic deformation or quasi-brittle fracture. The main attention is paid to the consideration of the influence of low temperatures in the operation of forest machines in winter on the properties of metals and, consequently, on the level of their reliability. It is recommended to use more widely such characteristic of materials as fracture toughness to assess the reliability of the design.
