Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the extent to which surface coating can improve the service life and mechanical properties of tools made from UNIMAX steel. Two specimens with identical composition and heat treatment were used, one of which was coated with a CrAlN-based BALINIT FORMERA layer. Microhardness measurements, wear tests, and microscopic analyses were carried out during the investigation. The results clearly demonstrated that the coating significantly increases the tool’s lifetime and enhances its mechanical properties.
