Mechanical engineering & automation

Components that stay in service longer.

For machine builders and component manufacturers: surface hardening, coating and finishing tailored to your component.

Mechanical engineering & automation

Less friction. Protected sliding surfaces.

Moving components are exposed to friction and wear.

A piston in a cutaway guide shows the sliding contact.

Piston in its guide

Reduce friction
Match sliding surfaces to the movement and mating component.
Protect contact surfaces
Treat stressed surfaces specifically to resist wear.
Extend component service life
The aim is longer service life and fewer wear-related failures.

Applications & services

Pumps & hydraulics

Functional surfaces under load

Surface treatment and testing depend on loads and the operating medium.

Machining tools

Drills, milling cutters and other cutting tools

The coating system and surface preparation depend on the material and machining process.

Testing and optimisation

Test coating properties, investigate causes of damage and tailor improvements to your application.
