【New Technology for Long-lasting Molds】 Hard Coating Formation Process 'DC Coat-R'

Achieved "approximately twice the mold lifespan" compared to previous hard coating methods! Accepting test machining!

We have developed a plasma nitriding technology called "DC Coat R," which combines traditional PVD treatment. This new technology can shorten processing time compared to other nitriding treatments. Additionally, it significantly improves longevity, stress limits, and fatigue resistance. Moreover, during processing, it is an environmentally friendly surface modification process with no direct carbon dioxide emissions. ■Features ◎Reduction of oxidative wear with Cr-based films (high-temperature oxidation resistance) ◎Low friction coefficient achieved through finishing processes before and after treatment ◎Improved adhesion of CrN films through controlled plasma nitriding treatment ◎Increased compressive strength of the substrate due to controlled plasma nitriding treatment, enhancing resistance to high surface pressure strength ■Specific Product Examples ◎Cold forging dies ◎Press dies (high-tensile steel plates, general SUS materials, drawing dies, etc.) 【Effects】 Fatigue strength, adhesion, wear resistance, heat resistance 【Applicable Steel Types】 Applicable to all iron-based metals *For more details, please request documentation or view the PDF data available for download.
