- Food industry
Machining of Ferrous Materials
This coating is mostly used as wear protection in hobbing, drilling or tap machining, where low and medium cutting values are used. Due to the fact that TiN shows very low levels of reactivity with ferrous metals, tool wear from galling is significantly reduced.
Drawing, Punching, Pressing …
Preferred areas of application are, among others, drawing, punching, pressing and metal forming tools for the machining of sheet steel or plastic processing tools, subject to high levels of abrasive wear – e.g. mineral-filled organic press masses. In addition, TiN coating systems improve the removal of injection moulds.
Visual Refinement
This coating’s attractive gold colour and high abrasion resistance make TiN coating the first choice in visual refinement of various surfaces for many decorative applications.
Food-Safe Coating
Titanium nitride coatings are entirely food-safe and therefore ideal for use in the food industry. Furthermore, TiN is very well suited for use in medical technology applications thanks to its high levels of chemical resistance and bio-compatibility.
Application of TiN by means of DUPLEX and of the low temperature method is available.
