Increasing productivity of processing the mortar body component

Within the study, the increase in processing productivity of the mortar body part of the aerosol system AEK-902 “Tucha”, is studied, which is actively used for camouflage and enhancing combat capability of military equipment and vehicles, serves as an auxiliary means for evacuation, and as a defense method against drones. Using the automated selection method, cutting tools and efficient cutting parameters were chosen for mechanical turning operations, utilizing software, including Sandvik ToolGuide, Walter GPS, and Iscar Tool Advisor. The obtained parameters were compared, the productivity was calculated using the material removal rate (MRR) method, and comparative productivity charts were created. Based on the data, recom-mendations for selecting cutting tools and processing parameters for specific turning operations were developed. The results are based on software recommendations and require further experimental verification in real production conditions. Verifica-tion through practical experiments will allow comparison of calculated parameters to actual processing indicators, refining the parameters and considering possible deviations. This is relevant direction for future research in automated tool selection and optimizing mechanical processing.
