The article describes the main principles of the movement around the circumference of the cranes circular steps. It is proved that the defining characteristics of the organization of the movement of the crane on the circle are the geometric parameters of the mutual reversal of the running wheels of the crane, not the observance of the reversal determines the transverse slippage of wheels of the crane, and the shape of the wheels depends only on the elastic longitudinal slide. The result of slides and slippage is firing the head of the rail with one hand and the loss of stability when moving the crane. Stability stability ensures the achievement of the precision targeting of the gripping device. These parameters are the main performance characteristics that should be valued in absolute terms should be minimal.

Results of the performed works at calibration of the metal-cutting machine are given in article. The technology of performance of control is considered. The conclusion in which it is noted that laser trackers including the measuring Vintag vehicle produced by Faro firm, possess high efficiency of the solution of problems of calibration is made. Their software has an opportunity to carry out processing of results of measurements and preparation of reports directly on the platform of performance of work and to give results on the place. To provide the accuracy of measurements of the spatial coordinates of 0.005-0.01 mm at distances to 10000-15000 mm. All these characteristics allow to recommend to machine-building enterprises use of such and similar measuring cars for the solution of problems of calibration of metal-cutting machines.

the article presents the study in the control of the geometric parameters of wheels of cranes circular steps. The options considered to determine the radii of the wheels by indirect methods, of which the most effective are those based on the construction of the measuring triangle at the open part of the forming. As the final results and proposals noted the following: both control provide almost ravnovesnye results definitions of the geometric parameters of the wheels; more universal is the way to control the radius of the wheel, using calipers and this method is recommended when addressing these and similar problems.

In article the analysis of ways of increase and criteria for evaluation of stability of the welding arc category is carried out. The most perspective way of increase of stability of the arc category, can be carried out due to pulse, high-frequency impact on a welding contour. The experimental data obtained at research of the combined power supply system of the arc category of a direct current at parallel connection to the main welding power supply of the additional generator of impulses are given. Influence of a pulse component from the additional generator with a frequency of 40 kHz, on stability of burning of the arc category is considered at manual arc welding by the covered electrodes. As criteria for evaluation of stability of burning of the arc category have been accepted such as, the explosive length of an arch with which there is it's natural break and coefficient of stability. The conducted pilot studies and positive results of skilled approbation of the developed power supply system of the arc category allow to recommend it for application at installation of responsible metal designs.
