Ionbond™ CVD 29

Ionbond™ CVD 29

Ionbond^™ CVD 29 is exceptionally well-suited for high-volume machining of cast iron and cast steel at medium to high cutting speeds and high temperatures due to the thermo-dynamically stable structure of its ceramic content.

The αAl₂O₃ layer, as a functional layer, not only exhibits an exceptional hot-hardness, it also features a very low thermal conductivity, which significantly increases tool lifetime. TiN, as a surface layer, protects the  hard ceramic αAl₂O₃ layer from wear damage during the cutting start-up phase.

Ionbond^™ CVD 29 is applied at ca. 1000°C by means of CVD and is suited for cemented carbide cutting inserts.
