PVD coatings
DLC-Protect®
With coatings, “Shine bright like a diamond” means: Shine with your performance characteristics – in the case of DLC with a high surface hardness and an almost unique smoothness (a low coefficient of friction).
DLC coatings: tough as nails
Diamonds are a Mold’s best Friend. High hardness with a low coefficient of friction: DLC-Protect®, our Diamond-Like-Carbon coating, combines the properties of diamond and carbon in one coating system. It reduces the tendency to cold welding and at the same time offers protection against corrosion and abrasive wear.
Due to the low coating temperature, non-ferrous metals can also be coated without any problems. The DLC-Protect® coating can also be used for the internal coating of drill holes and openings.
