Tool Coatings

Tool coatings are special thin layers applied to the surfaces of cutting tools and machinery parts to enhance their performance. These coatings improve durability, reduce friction, and resist wear and corrosion, allowing tools to cut more smoothly and last longer. Common materials used include titanium nitride, chromium nitride, and diamond-like carbon. By protecting the tool's surface, coatings help maintain precision, reduce heat buildup, and increase efficiency during machining processes, ultimately saving time and costs while producing better results.
