Considered are the prospects of applying complex post-processing for an additive manufactured product with the deposition of a multilayer composite coating [Ti 0.2 C 0.8 /a-C] 40 at the final stage. It is shown that heat treatment, finish milling, ion-plasma nitriding and burnishing with a sliding diamond indenter of a PH1 steel part obtained by se...

... SEM image and 3-d profilometry shown in figure 1 (a) and (b), indicate that the multilayer coating deposited on the part after heat treatment and finish milling is characterized by significant unevenness and heterogeneity. The average parameters of the surface roughness Ra of the specified coating are 310 and 180 nm when measured, respectively, on surface areas with dimensions of (table 1). A thin-film coating deposited on a part subjected to additional post-processing of ion-plasma nitriding and burnishing is marked by significantly higher uniformity and homogeneity ( figure 1 (c) and (d)) and significantly lower average values of the roughness parameter Ra = 82-86 nm (table 1). ...
