SPECIALTY COATINGS. In some cases superior coatings are added to the tools, these coatings maintain flute sharpness and extend the life of the tool. Further these coatings provide additional strength to the tool, here again extending the tool work-life and saving money.
Our specially-coated tools provide exceptional hardness with less roughness so expect faster feed rates, much less wear and tear as well as significantly fewer micro breakages of flutes. Harder tool surfaces are ideal for machining harder surfaces such as steel, taking the Datron precision tool advantages to a wider range of applications!
The dependable characteristics of Our high-quality tools are further improved with a two unique material coatings. These specialty coatings provide an improved hardness enabling faster feed rates, and a smoother surface finish. In addition, these coatings allow for optimized tool wear and increased continuous production times.
ALCRONA - is an aluminum chromium nitride coating (AlCrN) and is ideal for applications in very hard aluminum such as cast aluminum or sand cast aluminum. Tools coated with ALCRONA are also ideal for fiberglass materials
X.CEED - is a Titanium aluminum nitride coating (TiAIN) and is intended for applications in steel.
