Abstract
The article presents a classification of equipment for wood shredding, particularly chopping machines, describing their features along with advantages and disadvantages. The problem is identified and the aim of future research related to the durability of cutting tools in chopping machines is determined.
Methods of friction processing based on surface rubbing are considered, and ways of surface strengthening of metals are distinguished, determining the most optimal among them. The conclusions of the conducted research are presented in the final analysis.
