PVD/DLC Coating

TAKE THE NEXT STEP IN TOOLING:
COMBINE TOOL STEEL WITH PVD COATINGS

The main reason for coating a tool is to combat wear and reduce costs. By extending tool life, coatings improve performance, minimize maintenance downtime, and drive cost efficiency. Boost your productivity with our advanced PVD and DLC solutions.

Because wear has many faces – abrasion, adhesion, diffusion, oxidation – and every one of them shortens tool life and drives up costs. PVD coatings help combat these mechanisms, extending durability, improving component quality, and reducing maintenance downtime. The result: greater productivity and lower total cost of ownership.

There’s no universal solution in tooling. That’s why selecting the right combination of tool steel and coating is
essential. This brochure highlights proven pairings of PVD coatings and tool steels that deliver reliable performance across demanding applications.
