Cutting Tool Applications
Cutting Tool
- High Speed Steel tools life increased 3 to 30 times
- Carbide tools life increased 2 to 5 times
- Deposition temperatures as low as 480-840°F (250-450°C) protect carbide's binder from deterioration, by comparison with the CVD process applied at more than 1,850°F (1,000°C)
- Isolates the tool from the part, avoids edge buildup and tool cratering
- Reduced friction against workpiece and chips, reduced spindle torque, less vibrations, better finish
- Speed and Feed increased 10 to 50%
- Reduces or eliminates cooling (with specific coatings)
- Repeatable, stable performance of the coatings between batches
- When required, our stripping procedures remove completely old coatings without attacking base steel
- Regrinding and recoating saves 25 to 75% on tooling costs
- 5-10 days batch turnaround
