Tungsten for hard material coatings

Hard material coatings based on aluminum-chromium for better cutting performance and increased service life of the cutting tools

Improved performance of tools and components through AlCrN coatings

Improved oxidation resistance and lower thermal stress increase the performance and service life of tools and components.

​

​

PROPERTIES

  • High ductility of the layer

  • Excellent material hardness

  • High resistance to oxidation

  • Low coefficient of friction

  • Reduced thermal load

ADVANTAGES

  • high ductility

  • high thermal conductivity

  • Excellent hot hardness

  • Increased wear resistance

  • Long service life

  • Reduction of set-up times

applications

  • Dry cutting applications

  • Wet machining

  • Milling cutter

  • Forming tools

  • Hard and soft spaces

DELIVERY FORM

  • Planar and circular sputtering targets

  • Arc cathodes

  • 99.5-99.9% purity

Four times longer tool life

With aluminum-chrome, sophisticated coatings are possible that:  

​

  • Increase the service life of the tools by two to four times

  • Enable cutting and milling at high speed with low thermal load

  • allow a massive reduction in set-up times

  • a very low roughness, which facilitates chip evacuation and reduces chip build-up on the edges

  • ensures high and constant dimensional accuracy and surface quality of the machined components

Standard applications are a thing of the past,
unique and outstanding coating results are now in demand.

Tailor-made alloys for specific and demanding applications and 

of course also standard sizes in the form of individual offers.

INNOVATIVE COATINGS
TO MEET THE HIGH MARKET AND CUSTOMER REQUIREMENTS

Numerous companies achieve remarkable improvements in the performance of tools and components through the coating materials and auxiliaries optimized by Avaluxe.

 

With chemically resistant, extremely smooth coating solutions, Avaluxe customers achieve extreme wear resistance with excellent machinability in their applications.

​

Often, by doping aluminum-chromium with a third element specially developed by Avaluxe, a remarkable improvement in the layer properties is achieved.
