Prospects of application of modern wear-resistant coatings to improve the performance properties of combined cutting and forming tools for finishing of cylindrical gears

The article deals with the aspects of improving the performance of a combined cutting and deforming tool designed for finishing gear machining of cylindrical gears. Presented are currently relevant proposals on the prospects for the applicability of wear-resistant coatings for this type of tool. It is emphasized that regardless of where coatings are used, they all have one thing in common: the coating changes the surface properties of the tool.
