Maintaining sharpness with a film thickness of 1µm or less! Thin film coating that prevents wear through sliding.
NonStick STC
【Surface treatment that does not compromise sharpness at all】 Overcomes the weaknesses of conventional fluoropolymer! With ultra-thin film and excellent low friction properties, it strongly suppresses edge wear caused by difficult-to-cut materials.
The biggest challenge in coating industrial blades is "not to compromise the sharpness (cutting ability and precision) of the blade edge due to the thickness of the coating." Common fluoropolymer coatings tend to be thick, which can round off the blade edge and reduce cutting precision. Our "NonStick STC" is an "ultra" thin, non-stick coating that provides excellent slip properties without compromising the sharpness of the blade edge. 【Technical Approach】 ■ Ultra-thin film with a thickness of less than 1µm Can be coated without changing the blade edge angle or geometric shape. It completely maintains the sharp cutting ability of the cutter. ■ Reduction of sliding resistance By imparting excellent "slip properties (low friction)" comparable to fluoropolymer on the surface, it alleviates the friction load that hard materials like glass fibers exert on the blade edge. ■ Compatibility of wear resistance and non-stick properties Boasting adhesion and wear resistance that withstands harsh continuous cutting, it has achieved over 200,000 continuous cuts in internal tests. This approach of "maintaining sharpness with an ultra-thin film while resisting wear attacks" realizes the longevity of cutting tools.

Applications/Examples of results
【For Engineers Facing Such Challenges】 - Struggling with rapid wear of cutting edges when cutting glass fibers or difficult-to-cut materials. - Wanting to try coatings, but concerned that increased film thickness will reduce sharpness and dimensional accuracy. - Aiming to enhance tool durability while preventing adhesion of sticky substances and resins. 【Actual Machine Evaluation Results】 ■Applicable Targets Cutting tools for automotive interior linings (glass fiber composite sheets). ■Evaluation Results - Maintained initial sharp cutting precision after application due to a film thickness of less than 1µm. - Dramatically reduced wear from glass fibers due to low friction effects, improving durability from 1 month to 3 months (3 times). - Quality precision of cut surfaces (prevention of burrs and fuzz) remains stable over the long term. We also accept trial applications (prototype evaluation tests) tailored to work shapes. Please feel free to consult with us.

Company information
Nikken Coating Industry Co., Ltd. has been a specialized manufacturer of functional coatings for contract processing, earning the trust of customers across various industries for 79 years since its founding. We leverage our processing technology to maximize the properties of fluororesins, such as non-stick, lubricity, and chemical resistance, providing high-performance coatings that directly address customer challenges, including "Thermo Pro Release" for thermal welding processes and "NonStick STC" for blades and precision molds. In recent years, in response to movements regarding regulations on fluorinated compounds (PFAS), "PEEK resin," which is gaining attention as a substitute for fluororesins, has become a focus. Nikken Coating Industry commercialized the world's first PEEK resin coating, "PEEKCOAT," in 1999. Based on the solid knowledge and know-how accumulated over more than 20 years, we are further intensifying our research and development efforts to explore the potential of next-generation PEEK coatings! We aim to be recognized as "the go-to for PEEK coatings" and will continue to lead the way. As "the best partner for functional coatings that builds trust through technology," Nikken Coating Industry will continue to contribute to the creation of high-quality, high-performance products.
