Our ZERO-I coating is a PVD coating that offers a higher hardness, heat resistance, and lubricity. Its superior wear resistance leads to longer tool life.
With abrasion resistance and heat resistance improvement, ideal for: Cold Press, Cold Forging, Warm Forging, punching die high-tensile press molding, FB molding, etc.
Features
High hardness
In the automobile industry, the use of molds under severe conditions such as high-tensile steel and thickening has progressed, and it has become a challenge to suppress local elastic deformation that induces film peeling. ZERO-I cleared those problems and also surpasses Hv 3,500, greater than TiCN/TiALN to achieve a very high hardness.
High heat resistance
Achieves 1,000โ, exceeding TiAlN.
High adhesion thick film
Most PVD film thickness is 2๏ฝ3ยตm. ZERO-I achieves both high adhesion and thick film by stress relaxation techniques. This improves wear resistance and increases the effect of suppression elastic deformation.
