BALIQ ALCRONOS Advanced coating solution for micro tools, reamers, threading tools and stamping punches

BALIQ ALCRONOS micromachining
Reamers are required to produce high quality products and high quality surfaces
Outstanding surface quality and precision for thread formers and taps
Outstanding surface quality and precision for thread formers and taps
Revolutionary thread forming and tapping mastery

High-precision tools are required to produce components with high-quality surfaces and the required accuracy. However, the accuracy provided by new tools declines with use. With the micron-precise, high-end coating BALIQ® ALCRONOS, tools such as micro-drills, thread formers and mills, reamers, end mills and punches remain as good as new, and the reliability of the process is increased.

Tool change frequency is significantly reduced for a wide range of materials, especially ductile alloys like 300 series stainless and steels up to HRC 50 or when stamping challenging materials such as Corson alloys. The revolutionary smooth coating with excellent adhesion to the substrate ensures outstanding surfaces and thus high production quality. The AlCrN-based coating is also considerably less prone to built-up edge formation.

  • Consistently long tool life thanks to the smooth, defect-free coating surface, especially micro-drills
  • Precision, high-performance coating
  • High micro-machining process reliability and efficiency
  • Reduced tool costs
  • Reliable production of critical and expensive components
  • Superior manufacturing and surface quality
  • Can be reconditioned, thus contributing to sustainability by conserving valuable natural resources

BALIQ® ALCRONOS now offers the same properties with the same performance and benefits as the previously available BALIQ® MICRO ALCRONOS.

Matériau de revêtement Base AlCrN
Technologie de revêtement S3p
Couleur du revêtement bright grey
Dureté du revêtement HIT [GPa].* 37 +/-3
Contrainte intrinsèque [GPa]*** -3.5 +/-1
Temp. de service max. [°C]**** 1100
Température du procédé [°C] < 500
Remarque générale Toutes les valeurs spécifiées sont approximatives et dépendent de l'application, de l'environnement et des conditions d'essai.
*Dureté du revêtement HIT [GPa]. Mesuré par nanoindentation selon ISO 14577. Pour les revêtements multicouches, la dureté de chaque couche varie. La dureté peut être adaptatée à l'application.
***Contrainte intrinsèque [GPa] Mesuré par XRD et / ou méthode de pliage (équation de Stoney). La contrainte thermique calculée a été soustraite.
****Temp. de service max. [°C] Il s'agit de valeurs approximatives issues de la pratique. Les lois thermodynamiques induisent une dépendance de pression dans l'application.
