One of the main factors that determine the resistance of blade working bodies against damage under dynamic loads is their resistance to plastic crumpling, brittle or fatigue failure. Hard alloys that strengthen the blades of tillage parts are more brittle materials than steel, so the blunting of their edges is caused by the formation of cracks, their gradual growth or microchipping, even from a possible single impact of a solid inclusion in the soil. In addition to the usual brittle fracture of hard alloys, fatigue failure occurs under cyclic impact conditions. (Research purpose) The research purpose is in identifying the pattern of destruction of the blade edge of soil-cutting parts of forestry machines and theoretically justifying the algorithm for assessing the strength to determine the rational thickness of the wear-resistant coating during hardening. (Materials and methods) The article presents the main regularities of the influence of material properties and geometric parameters of the blade on the radius of rounding. (Results and discussion) The process of breaking the edge of the blade of hardened working bodies of forestry machines has been studied. The claim that the blunting of the blades is mainly due to its destruction and not to wear has been proved. The article presents a method for evaluating the strength of bimetallic blades of soil-cutting parts of forestry machines. It was found that the blunting of the blade occurs as a result of edge destruction in the process of multiple impacts of solid soil inclusions along the edge of the blade. (Conclusions) The article shows that the destruction of the edge of the blade leads to blunting of soil-cutting parts, which affects their performance. It was found that the sharpness of a self-sharpening hardened blade is determined by the thickness of the reinforcing layer and its ability to resist destruction under impact.
