Inside of the container of high vacuum, are vapor deposition materials heated. And we vapor-deposit particles ionized by electric discharge on tool's surface. Due to its low reaction temperature (lower than 500˚C), PVD makes little change in shape and hardness of HSS tools. We have adopted iron plating method, and are coating thin layer (1-4um) over our HSS and carbide tools. The layer processed by this method is very high in its adherence and its wear resistance.

Stainless Steels Workpiece materials Aluminum forging Cast Irons Brass Bronze Note: Evaluation (tri-level) of characteristic features is just comparative of these four coatings, TiN, TiCN, TiAlN, and CrN, in the table. These coatings have great advantages of wear resistance, welding resistance, and friction reduction. The values of vickers hardness are also higher than the heat treatment or nitriding of HSS cutting tools from the table.
