PVD Coating on Cutting Tools

Metistec PVD Coating on Cutting Tools

For the cutting tool industry, we offer improvements beyond standard PVD coating compositions based on application feedback.
Cutting tools used at high speed and ultra high speed produce a lot of heat, which can weaken the tool and shorten tool life.

In cutting tools with PVD coating;

-Premature mouth wear
-Thermal damages
-Mouth debris formation
BLOCKED

This is achieved mainly by reducing the coefficient of friction, providing wear resistance and reducing edge accumulation thanks to the PVD coating.

Cutting Tools

With TOOLPLUS series PVD coatings, which have improved thermal stability for the most demanding applications, you get significantly improved tool life compared to conventional coatings such as TiN.
