Improving the efficiency of maintenance production in agriculture closely connected to the creation and implementation of such methods of repair and recondition of elements that improve the physicomechanical and service properties of wear joint assemblies.The presence of a nitrided case on the surface of elements lays the groundwork for obtaining a complex covering based on chromium nitrides. Electrolytic chromium plating is one of the ways to recondition elements that increase the service life and machines reliability, and reduce maintenance cost. However, the widespread adoption of chromium plating for the recondition of worn elements is hold back by the low productivity of the process. Therefore, the intensification of chromium plating in reconditioning worn-out machine elements is an urgent problem. It is advisable to recondition critical parts subjecting to abrasive wear, for example, precision vapors of fuel injection equipment, with chromium plating. However, the low productivity and high-energy consumption of the process require the improvement of the electrolyte in order to increase the current output of chromium and the permissible cathode density. The article describes a method for improving the quality of an electrolyte, a method for increasing its versatility, namely the supplementation of various organic additives and complexing substances into it.
