Carbide Coating Repair
Carbide coating is the technique of electronically applying electrode material by a spark deposition process. Material is impregnated both underneath and on top of the workpiece surface. Because no appreciable heat is generated, the temper of the workpiece is retained. Carbide coatingis applied to new or reground and reshaped surfaces.
The end result of this surface is to increase productivity and reduce costs. When tools and dies remain in operation without replacement due to wear and tear, there will be less machine downtime, operator idle time, set-up, inspection time and the expense of new or resharpened tools and dies.
