High Speed Steel
tools life increased 3 to 30 times. Carbide tools
life increased 2 to 5 times. Deposition temperatures
as low as (250-450C) protect carbide's binder
from deterioration, by comparison with the CVD
process.
HardFace Coating improve cutting tool performance
by:
-
A. Isolating the tool from the part to avoid edge
buildup and - tool cratering.
- B. Reducing friction against workpiece and chips.
- C. Reducing spindle torque.
- D. Providing less vibration, better finish.
- E. Increasing speed and feed 10 to 50%.
