This master’s thesis deals with design and construction of experimental flyback converter with utilization of novel lossless clamp circuit for switching transistor and with utilization of silicon carbide devices. The issue of flyback converter for higher power and possible control strategies are discussed. The thesis also describes power and control circuits design, design of PCB, construction of the converter and measured waveforms. End of the thesis contains technical documentation of designed board. Designed converter was successfully built and tested.

The subject of this Diploma thesis was study of wear resistant deposits, including appropriate basic and filler materials and welding technologies suitable for a particular application of hard carbide overlays of blade mixer for foundry sand. Analysis of suitable filler materials focused on extreme abrasion and select tungsten carbide hardfacing, together with a selection of appropriate overlays welding methods for welding tungsten carbide, including the conditions and parameters surfacing. The practical part deals with the design and evaluation of the experiment, three samples welding of non-alloy structural steel, tungsten-carbide hardfacing, technology MCAW - WC flux cored electrode in protective active gas.

This thesis deals with the differences of various types of working tools of the Kverneland CLC Pro cultivator. Under specific conditions of the agricultural enterprise in the Czech Republic, it compares ordinary turning tine, carbide tine, Knock-on tine and renovated tine. In the introduction, there is a general overview of the properties of the soil, followed by an overview of various methods of soil cultivation, which are also related to various methods of founding plants. Furthermore, I summarized the types of cultivators and tillers, followed by an overview of the types of wear tines with their advantages and disadvantages. In the practical part of the work there is the monitoring of the lifetime of the compared technologies, the time required for their replacement, the cost of their acquisition and the overall economic evaluation.

The Thesis described within the scope of the Master Program is focused on cermets, which belong among cutting materials. The introductory portion of the Thesis presents the characteristics of cermets from the perspective of production, physical-mechanical characteristics, marking and usage in cutting. The core portion of the Thesis focuses on the role of cermets in the category of leading world producers of tools and instrumental materials, cutting evaluation, and the suggested working conditions of cermets in lathing operations. The working conditions are prepared for steel and cast iron. The conclusion of the Thesis focuses on a technical-economical analysis of cermets.

In the thesis is solved manufacturing technology of step drill from material of cemented carbide. At first is made review of existing shank cutting tool types, after that follows an analysis of cemented carbide tool material. In the next part of thesis is manufacturing technology of this tool, including review of grinding wheels, designed. Output of this work is procedure of program designing for manufacturing this tool in software Numroto. Next output is techno-economic evaluation of step hole manufacture with combined tool and comparison to conventional type of manufacture.

The diploma thesis deals with the design of the hole-making technology for hydraulic components that are specific for its high requirements on size and shape accuracy. The aim of diploma thesis is to compare the productivity, efficiency and accuracy of reaming with two different reamers – the solid carbide reamer and the newly designed reamer that combines two cermets on cutting part of the tool. In the practical part, the data analyses and calculations were made. It was discovered that the newly designed tool brings economic benefits while the qualities of final hole are improving or remaining at the same level.

This master thesis deals with design of DC-DC converter for onboard charging of electric vehicle. Developed converter will mainly be used for charging stationary traction battery in laboratory. Output voltage of this charger will be adjustable by user in between 200 V and 450 V depending on the current charged battery configuration. Output current limit is set at 8 A. Since the converter will be supplied from standard household socket, the problem of power factor correction must be solved during the design. That is because a large part of this thesis is focused on describing the problematics of power factor correction. After that, active PFC module is designed, completed and performance of this module is verified. To achieve low overall losses and thus be able to keep small volume of the system, modern switching components based on Silicon Carbide were preferred. Beside laboratory use, completed system will be used to emphasize volumetric difference between onboard chargers based on old versus modern switching components.

The aim of this work is to analyze the issue of providing cutting tools for internal use in the company STERCH-INTERNATIONAL s.r.o. It is mainly the production and regrinding of end mills and drills for specific machining applications, whose benefit lies in increased efficiency and flexibility of production, which also brings a significant cost reduction.

This diploma thesis view to problem electrical discharge sinking. Forth with deal production of indexable insert cemented carbide and application electrical discharge sinking at this technology.

This thesis is focused on cutting tools made of cemented carbides. It contains analysis of cemented carbides for uncoated and coated cutting tools. It contains examples of modern tools for turning, milling and drilling. Practical part of this thesis evaluates and compares cutting properties of two types of spiral drills.
