Coating Types

PVD Coating Types Coating Feature Coating Hardness HV Coating Thickness μm Friction Coefficient Heat resistant Temperature Coating Color Applications
TiN single - layer 2300 2-3 0.6 600 Golden high hardness, wear resistance and oxidation resistance; suitable for cutting tool, and is also suitable for forming mold and abrasion resistance workpiece.
TiCN single - layer 2800 2-3 0.3 500 Brown Gray lower internal stress , high toughness, and good lubricating properties; require lower friction coefficient and high hardness of the processing environment.
TiAlN single - layer 3100 2-3 0.3 750 Purple Blue Fever rigid chemical stability, excellent resistance to oxidation and wear resistance, suitable for dry cutting occasions.
CrN single - layer 1800 2-3 0.2 700 Silver Gray Significantly strong lubricating properties and high temperature characteristics, suitable for cutting tool of copper-based metal, and corrosion-resistant coating of parts of wear-resistant.
DLC single - layer 2500 1-2 0.1-0.2 300 Black Ash Excellent wear and corrosion resistance, low friction coefficient, combined with strong matrix. For the tool, usually with TiAlN base body with the use, for processing non-ferrous metals, such as graphite material.
Super A(AHNO) multilayer 3100 2-3 0.3 800 Blue Violet AHNO unique coating formulations, multilayer composite high alumina coating high hardness, high wear resistance, low friction coefficient, etc. advantages. Stability at high temperatures, especially suitable for high-speed cutting occasions.

Coating type of cutting tool divided into the types of physical coating (PVD) and chemical coating types (CVD) in two ways, according to the principle, under normal circumstances, the physical coating types (PVD) using more.

The physical coating types (PVD)
PVD coated cemented carbide tool life can be extended under the same conditions
Even if the sharp edge can cover this coating and the substrate when the coating does not occur softening metamorphism

Chemical coating types (CVD)
Special tough crystalline organization, improve the wear resistance, fracture resistance
wide versatility, reduce the total amount of the required tools
The outermost layer is a special part of the dense layer of the titanium compound (refractory attached sexual)
outer layer of alumina the (particulate refractory attached sex) (rake face wear resistance)
inner tough titanium carbonitride new coating technology thick film
(Flank wear) (the rake face wear resistance)
carbide substrate

Improve tool integrated mechanical performance requirements difficult to meet due to a single coating types, coating types will become more diversified, composite; meet different machining requirements, coating types will be more complex, more targeted; in single component coating thickness will increasingly thin composite coating types and gradually become Nan crystallization; coating process temperature is getting lower and lower, the tool coating process will be more reasonable direction.
