BALINIT® TISAFLEX

Machining difficult-to-cut materials at the highest level

Titanium, nickel-based alloys, stainless steel and hardened steel push cutting tools to their performance limits. Consequently, industries in which these materials are increasingly being used – mould-making, aerospace, the 3C industry (computers, communications and consumer electronics) – are facing new challenges.

BALINIT® TISAFLEX from Oerlikon Balzers provides outstanding oxidation resistance, high thermal stability and excellent wear resistance. The new high-end coating solution is thus the perfect solution for machining these demanding materials.

  • Superior oxidation resistance and thermal stability
  • Exceptional wear resistance
  • Perfect coating solution for machining difficult-to-cut materials like titanium, nickel-based alloys, stainless steel and hardened steel.

BALINIT® FORMERA

To provide increased passenger safety, and simultaneously comply with emissions legislation, future vehicles must be stronger and yet lighter. Each new vehicle model therefore contains a higher proportion of modern, high strength steel than its predecessors.

To ensure high productivity when forming these demanding steels, especially resilient coating solutions are required – such as BALINIT® FORMERA.

  • Up to 680% more efficient than comparable coatings
  • Great abrasive wear protection
  • Excellent coating adhesion
