These coatings are an engineered part of each tool, and provisions are taken to assure quality and workmanship is retained. LINK can recommend the coating best suited for your specific machining application. Reasons why you may want to consider a tool coating, include:

  • Increase speed and feed
  • Extend tool life
  • Reduce friction, spindle torque and vibration to provide a better finish
  • Reduce or eliminate coolant
  • Repeatable, stable tool performance
