Abstract

Novel superhard wear resistant nanocomposite coatings nc-(Ti1-xAlx)N/a-Si3N4 for advanced machining tools were developed and introduced into large scale industrial production within a relatively short time. We describe the development of the coating technology based on vacuum arc evaporation from a specially designed cylindrical cathode and, as a result of that development, the improvement of the properties and machining performance of the coatings.
