Modelling of nitrogen multi-energy ion implantation into WC-Co indexable knives for wood-based materials machining

Abstract

Modelling of nitrogen multi-energy ion implantation into WC-Co indexable knives for wood-based materials machining. The paper presents the results of the modelling of multi-energy ion implantation processes of nitrogen to WC-Co indexable knives for wood-based materials machining. The modelling was performed for implantation of N++N2+ ions, for implanters without and with mass separation. Additionally, modelling for average charge state and for the extended implantation case was executed. The best results, i.e. flat and long plateau region and the most favourable plateau/multi ratio were obtained for N+ ions.
