An Intelligent Automated Control System of Micro Arc Oxidation Process

The intelligent automated control system of management of technological processes of micro arc oxidation is developed enabling to implement controlled synthesis of oxide coatings with required properties. The structure of the intelligent system of micro arc oxidation process consists of hardware, software and information support. The controlled synthesis of oxide coatings is reached by using techniques developed by the authors. The system realizes an intelligent choice of optimum technological mode based on present information of theoretical and empirical laws of process of micro-arc oxidation contained in the knowledge bank, as well as the intelligent algorithm of identification of the alloy composition on the angular factor of forming curve. Presence “parameter of technological process - property of coating” in the system of feedback in combination with the ability to adjust the technological current over a wide range, promotes maintenance of optimum technological mode throughout all the time of processing of the item. The device can be used in industries, where valve metals and alloys, (aluminum, titanium, etc.) as well as in scientific researches are used.
