Ionbond™ 95 Concept

Next generation PVD coating for premium performance in forming metals and non-ferrous metals, particularly suitable for hot forging, aluminum extrusion and high-pressure die casting applications

Ionbond^™ 95 is a new, revolutionary coating with superior fatigue resistance, excellent adhesive and abrasive wear resistance, and a high oxidation resistance. This combination makes it the preferred coating over other coatings for hot forging applications.

The high adhesive and abrasive wear resistance of Ionbond^™ 95 at elevated temperatures makes it suited for challenging forming applications of non-ferrous metals like aluminum extrusion and high-pressure die casting where erosion is the primary failure mode of the tool.

The excellent fatigue and wear resistance characteristics of Ionbond^™ 95 also make it an excellent solution for piercing, cold forming, and trimming of advanced high strength steel (AHSS).

Ionbond^™ 95 is deposited between 400 °C and 450 °C. The process allows coating of a wide variety of tool materials below their respective tempering temperature. This ensures that no softening or dimensional changes will occur. Ionbond^™ 95 is particularly recommended to be combined with nitriding to enhance the load-carrying capability and durability of the tool.
