The efficient and durable coloration of cars at their manufacturing and repair needs preparation of surfaces to be painted which consists in ensuring their quality and forming proper roughness required for painting and degreasing. The paper reports the standard method offered for the assessment of technical and economical efficiency of railroad car metal surface processing with a free abrasive based on data of processing modes, materials used and quality of a clean surface obtained.
For this at the initial stage there was carried out the analysis of standards in the field of a metal pre-coloration processing for the purpose of the require-ments to the quality of a surface to be clean, roughness and a degree of degreasing. In the corresponding stand-ards there are defined three basic groups of surface preparation quality, which may be conditionally subdi-vided into high, average and low quality. The assess-ment of processing efficiency was carried out under a condition of ensuring the first quality group. For that there was carried out a comparison of four standard technologies of metal pre-painting for the purpose of the process efficiency, material consumption (power) and surface processing quality obtained. The comparison has shown that the highest effectiveness has a technology of thermal abrasive-jet processing. This technology allows avoiding chemical agents use for metal surface degreasing which allows decreasing material capacity of the process and increasing considera-bly a pre-painting productivity.
