| TiAlN (Titanium Aluminium Nitride) |
| Futura Nano (TiAlN), produced in the INNOVA, is a great all round coating for both HSS and carbide tools, especially in applications where there is a high thermal load. TiAlN has a nanolayered structure which was engineered to give an optimum balance between hardness and internal stress. High internal compressive stresses help to reduce the propagation of cracks through a coating therefore delaying the onset of failure. TiAlN also has improved sliding properties. |
| Applications and Benefits |
| • Abrasive materials - cast iron and heat treated steel • Difficult to machine materials, such as stainless steel • Higher speeds and feeds • Reduces or eliminates use of coolants |
