Understanding End Mill Coatings
The Purpose of Coatings
Extend Tool Life, Wear Resistance, minimize built up edge, Faster Speeds & Feeds, increase productivity.
The most important thing to understand about coating is that it’s NOT just about the picking the right coating selection (AlCrN, AlTiN, TiAlN, TiCN, TiB2, ZrN, etc). It’s equally important to pick the right process of applying the coating, along with pre and post treatments and coating thickness
We work directly with the Coaters to design the perfect chemistry, hardness, thickness and finish for optimum cutting performance in your application.
