These TiAlN coatings are universally suitable for machining most common steels. The optional finishing additional smoothness to the adds coatings which are already smooth and free of droplets. From thin to thick, with coating thicknesses from 1.5 to 10 μm, all kinds of cutting tools can be optimized to their specific applications.

The high content of aluminum results in high hardness. The smooth and droplet free surface and the very good adhesion of the coating make HYPERLOX® perfect for end mills, the Plus versions also feature greater wear volumes to increase tool life and productivity. HYPERLOX® has additionally proved to solve heat checking issues in high pressure die casting, the coating thicknesses, applied in the range of 3 to 6 μm, protect the substrate from the negative influences in the cutting process because of high temperatures.

Supertin® is normally applied to steels, hardened steels, and aluminum materials at 425°C - 450°C where high wear resistance and lubricity is needed. The unique properties of Addlife Supertin® coating make it ideally suited for applications that use expensive tooling such as injection molding, sawing, tapping and forming. This coating is also used in numerous medical (implants, surgical instruments, etc.)

HSN2 coating is effective in wet cutting of <45 HRC material and dry cutting of >45 HRC material up to 65 HRC. This coating has found wide use in the die & mould, and aerospace industry. The silicon content forms a highly resistive barrier to thermal diffusion, this preventing oxidative and diffusion wear at higher cutting temperatures.
