Coating Applications

Cutting Tools

ICO Surface Coatings reduce the abrasive, adhesive and crater wear on cutting tools for conventional wet, dry and high speed machining. Modern coating technology reduces ARC droplets and the friction between chip and tool.

Punches
ICO Surface Coatings provide a significant increase in tool life by reducing friction on punches, molds and dies.

Forming
In forming applications such as extrusion, molding, deep-drawing, coining, ICO Surface Coatings reduce friction, wear, built-up edges and striation. Repolishing of functional surfaces is not necessary in most cases.

Injection Molding
ICO Surface Coatings increase productivity for plastic forming and forming machine components with better release and lower wear. Low roughness and excellent surface texture improve part release and influence
injection forces in the mold to allow shorter cycle times.

For parts with a mirror finish, re-polishing after coating is recommended. Due to physical limitations, deep holes and slots are seldom coatable.

Wear Parts
ICO Surface Coatings solve tribological problems with machine components
that can be coated at temperatures of 200-500°C.

Due to the hardness (up to 36 GPa), abrasive wear is reduced. This leads to higher reliability for dry operations and environmentally damaging lubricants can be replaced.
