COATINGS

ULTRA 600 Coating machine.

Ultracut designed and developed the ULTRA 600 over the last 8 years with one single goal in mind 'Advanced Superior Coatings'. This machine and the process is designed to be fully computer controlled which essentially means greater consistency, more precise, ultra hard and fine quality coatings.

The ULTRA 600 uses a filtered cathodic arc Physical Vapour Deposition (FCAPVD) process which produces a coating that is extremely smooth, wear resistant, anti corrosive and ultra hard.

Our team of highly skilled staff not only excel at PVD coating and cutting tool design, they are also instrumental in the research and development of these technologies ensuring the customer gets the best coating available.

Ultracut standard coatings include:

UltraTiN
is a good general purpose coating; UltraTiN can be used in most applications such as drilling, cutting, forming, machining of carbon steels, cast iron & aluminium.

UltraTiCN
this coating is harder than UltraTiN and is ideal for interrupted cutting, stamping and forming of steels, cast iron, titanium and aluminium with more than 10% silicon content.

UltraALTiN
this is an extremely versatile coating with many uses, suitable for hardened steels up to 70HRC including cast irons, stainless steel, titanium, HSC machining and dry machining.

UltraTiALN
this coating is similar to UltraALTiN but is slightly less brittle and more ductile therefore making it better for roughing and interrupted cutting. It is ideal for machining steels up to 48HRC, and is highly suitable for wet or dry machining as well as high speed machining.

UltraALCrN
has exceptional corrosion resistance and oxidation stability. It is specifically purpose designed for high temperature steels up to 56HRC, titanium, fibre reinforced plastics & stainless steels.

UltraZrN+
suitable for machining titanium, cast irons and other non ferrous materials such as aluminum, copper and brass.

UltraCrN
suitable for difficult to machine copper and titanium, UltraCrN has exceptional anti corrosive and anti sticking properties.

DLC
suitable for machining non-ferrous materials such as aluminium, graphite and composites such as Carbon Fibre and Fiberglass.

We are always prepared to discuss specialty coating requirements, and stand ready and prepared to research, design specific coatings to meet customer needs.
