Thin Coatings

PVD – Physical Vapour Deposition

Thin coating process (thickness of 2-5µm) in vacuum deposition where a material is, transformed in vapour, transported and finally deposited in the surface of the base material.

Advantages

· Higher components lifetime
  (cutting tools, moulds, stamping and progressive tools, etc.)
· Lower maintenance and repair times
· Costs redution
· Higher global productivity
· Higher product quality
· Reduction or elimination of lubrication

 

DiExtra®

DLC

General Characteristics

. High corrosion resistance due to high density and featureless   structure.
. Good adhesive wear resistance.
. Lower friction coefficient than Titanium based coatings.

Typical Applications

Cutting tools: Coating of Hard Metal or High Speed Steel tools to cut abrasive materials like graphite and fibers. Cutting of Stainless Steel and Aluminium alloys.

Injection moulds: components submitted to strong corrosion and wear by erosion. Improved mould release and decrease adhesion of materials on moulding surfaces.

Forming tools: coating of tools for stamping and plastic conformation of Aluminium, Cupper alloys and Brass.
