Chromium Nitride is the go-to coating for tooling that faces heat and corrosion due to its exceptional properties. It offers:
- Excellent Release Properties: This coating minimizes the adhesion of workpieces to tooling, leading to smoother operations and reduced material buildup.
- High Corrosion and Chemical Resistance: CrN provides robust protection against corrosive environments and aggressive chemicals, extending the lifespan of tools.
- Ideal for Aluminum and Plastic Tooling: Its unique characteristics make it particularly well-suited for applications involving aluminum and various plastic materials, enhancing their performance and durability.
Machining and Cutting Tools
- Drills, end mills, inserts, and taps benefit from AlTIN coating for high-speed machining.
- Extends tool life.
Aerospace
- Used in tooling for high-performance alloys and composite materials.
- Ideal for titanium and nickel-based alloys.
Automotive
- Applied on components and tools that undergo high stress and temperature, such as engine parts and gear cutting tools.
Medical
- Used on surgical instruments and orthopedic implants for durability and biocompatibility.
Die and Mold Making
- Coating improves the performance of tools cutting abrasive materials like glass-filled plastics or hardened steels.
