		Electric arc deposition of hard  coatings       Industrial equipment and technology for electric arc deposition of hard coatings from TiN, CrN, ZrN, Ti(N,C), Cr(N,C), Zr(N,C), (TixAl1-x)N on cutting tools, press-forms, dies and other details from stainless steel and tool steel, enhancing their hardness, wear- and corrosion resistance were developed and designed. The coatings are with thickness from 3 to 5 µm and microhardness up to 37 GPa. The equipment and technology for electric arc deposition, as well as the coatings deposition can be ordered and offered for sale.
