AlCrN goes HiPIMS: The new all-rounder for steel machining

NEW: For wet and dry processing of steel and cast iron

AlCrN coatings have long been established in steel processing, mostly using the arc process. Despite proven efficiency, performance gains have recently stagnated—until now: HiPIMS technology is providing new impetus. It enables extremely smooth, dense, and adhesive coatings. With MultiCon®, CemeCon presents the next evolutionary stage of its HiPIMS-based AlCrN coatings—significantly more powerful than arc alternatives. Steel is ubiquitous in industrial manufacturing and demands maximum performance from tools and coatings. With its latest HiPIMS coating material MultiCon®, CemeCon offers a high-performance solution specifically for milling and drilling cast iron and steels between 30 and 50 HRC. MultiCon® combines excellent adhesion, an extremely smooth surface, and optimized wear behavior to take machining quality and tool life to a new level—both in wet and dry machining.
