With Insights, customers benefit from our domain expertise in thermal spray and gain access to specialized analytics tools while maintaining full ownership and flexibility over their data.
Our consolidated data shows that all our tool coatings improve at least one of the environmental criteria, as tools with standard coatings or high-performance coatings can outperform uncoated tools by
Setting the standards in coating technology, Oerlikon Balzers has delivered ta-C coatings with a high-energy arc-evaporation process for other industries such as tooling for years, now rolling them out
Besides, materials important to the aerospace industry like titanium and nickel alloys impose severe stress, not only thermally but also mechanically, on the tools used to machine them.
Cutting tools coated with solutions from Oerlikon Balzers allow significantly higher processing speeds. This reduces machining time and costs and significantly extends tool life.
Outstanding results are achieved especially with tools that have ultra-small diameters.
Emission reduction in transportation, maximized longevity and performance of tools and components, increased efficiency and intelligent materials are hallmarks of its leadership.
Roland Herb, Head of Tools at Oerlikon Balzers explains: “Oklahoma City was selected as the site for our new center because several key industries are located in the region; customers in the aerospace,
Emission reduction in transportation, maximized longevity and performance of tools and components, increased efficiency and intelligent materials are hallmarks of its leadership.
