Abstract
In the article, based on studies of the wear of the cutting surfaces of the incisor inserts of road cutters, an original device is proposed that allows measuring all wear elements of the cutting inserts of road cutters, including the kinematic profile of the wear site proposed for the first time. Experimental studies of prototypes of assemblies with elastic elements embedded in them have been carried out and a decrease in noise content in the general flow of measuring information has been achieved due to the simplicity of the design and the absence of destabilizing complex-profile and kinematically dependent mechanisms and assemblies in it. For the first time, the proposed solutions made it possible to increase the efficiency of road milling machines (RMM), including expanding their operational, technological, economic, and design and mechanical capabilities
