OUR OFFER OF THE PVD COATINGS: 1. TiN + AlTiN + Si – the coating consists of three layers, each component having specific properties. The use of the TiN layer prevents adhesion wear, which is used together with the AlTiN layer due to its high toughness and hardness. The last component of the coating is an extremely hard nanocomposite Si layer. The characteristic color of the coating is gold. Application of TiN + AlTiN + Si – This coating application can be seen with high alloyed steels with hardness above 60 HRC. Use of this combination is also suitable for machining of hardto-machine materials....
