PSAWS offers a broad portfolio of CVD, PVD and PACVD coatings for high speed steel, cermet and carbide tools. Coatings aid in establishing consistent tool life and ensuring a better surface finish. Overall costs within cutting operations can be reduced, providing higher cutting speed and feed rates than non-coated, standard tooling. Value coatings provide higher productivity and extended tool life at an entry level cost. Performance coatings are specifically designed for high speed, high feed, abrasive applications producing high thermal loads. Julia, Kinkelder, Re-Bo, Ott+Heugel and Stark all offer unique coatings, below we have highlighted several options from Julia.
