Tools and dies represent a significant financial investment. If a mould wears out prematurely because of surface friction and must be repaired, that means lost production time and lost revenue.
So, investing in surface treatments that improve tool quality and longevity is one way to save money for long production runs.
There is no one solution that's right for everyone. That's why there are different treatment solutions to help withstand heat, protect against abrasion, resist chemical corrosion, and lower friction for better part release. Here is a closer look at the top four general types of surface treatment for production tools.
In this episode you will learn about:

- Plating (Chrome Plating, Electroless Nickel, Nickel Boron Nitride)
- Physical Vapour Deposition
- Chemical Vapour Deposition
- Spray-On Coatings
This series is specifically catered to professionals interested in engineering, manufacturing, product design and product development.
