With aluminum-chrome, sophisticated coatings are possible that:
​
Increase the service life of the tools by two to four times
Enable cutting and milling at high speed with low thermal load
allow a massive reduction in set-up times
a very low roughness, which facilitates chip evacuation and reduces chip build-up on the edges
ensures high and constant dimensional accuracy and surface quality of the machined components
INNOVATIVE COATINGS
TO MEET THE HIGH MARKET AND CUSTOMER REQUIREMENTS
Numerous companies achieve remarkable improvements in the performance of tools and components through the coating materials and auxiliaries optimized by Avaluxe.
With chemically resistant, extremely smooth coating solutions, Avaluxe customers achieve extreme wear resistance with excellent machinability in their applications.
​
Often, by doping aluminum-chromium with a third element specially developed by Avaluxe, a remarkable improvement in the layer properties is achieved.
