What are the coatings of NC tools? What's the difference?

2020-10-12 496

The commonly used coating materials include carbide, nitride, carbonitride, oxide, boride, silicide, diamond and composite coating. According to the characteristics of chemical bond, these coating materials can be divided into metal bond type, covalent bond type and ionic bond type.

· properties of coating materials

Metal bond coating materials (such as TiB2, tic, tin, VC, WC, etc.) are common coating materials with high melting point, low brittleness, high interfacial bonding strength, strong interaction trend, good multilayer matching, and good inductive properties. Covalently bonded coating materials (such as B4C, SiC, BN, diamond, etc.) have high hardness, low coefficient of thermal expansion, poor bonding strength with substrate interface, poor stability and multilayer matching. However, the ionic bond materials have good chemical stability, high brittleness, high coefficient of thermal expansion, low melting point and low hardness.

Among these coatings, tic, tin, Al2O3, diamond and composite coatings are mostly used.

Features

TIC has good wear resistance, which can effectively improve the ability of tool to resist crescent pit wear, and is suitable for low-speed cutting and severe wear occasions; tin coating has low friction coefficient, good smooth performance, can reduce cutting heat and cutting force, and is suitable for cutting with fusion and wear; high temperature wear resistance, heat resistance and oxidation resistance of Al2O3 are better than tic and tin, and the wear rate of crescent crater is low Diamond coating is suitable for high-speed and large-scale cutting hot cutting; diamond coating has high hardness and thermal conductivity and low friction coefficient, which is suitable for high-speed cutting of non-ferrous alloy; while composite coating summarizes the characteristics of several coating materials, and now the combination of double coating and three coating is the majority.
