The most significant technological advance in the field of cutting tools since the development of cobalt tungsten carbide is the coated tool. The coatings form diffusion barriers which prevent the interaction between the shavings formed during machining and the cutting material. Among the typical coatings we can mention titanium carbide (TiC), titanium nitride (TiN), chromium nitride (CrN), titanium-aluminium nitride (TiAlN), zirconium nitride (ZrN) and the diamond which are extremely hard (…)

H2o optimises VACUDEST® vacuum distillation systems. Rinsing water from surface finishing processes is often low in pH. Prior to feeding this water into conventional vacuum distillation systems it required up to date pH adaption in continuous feed neutralisation systems. DestControl® measures the pH in the distillate and controls set points by feeding caustic soda directly into the heat exchanger of the vacuum distillation system. Thus the continuous feed neutralisation system is not (…)
