A CERMET & COATED CERMET
KYOCERA is known as one of the leading manufacturers of cermets. Cermet is a composite
material combining ceramic and metal. Typical materials used in cermets are TiC, TiN, TiCN
and NbC. Designed to provide long tool life and excellent surface finishes, cermets combine
toughness with superior wear resistance.
PVD Coated Cermet is a cermet substrate with a thin coating offering high wear resistance
and high adhesion resistance. The coating is applied by PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition)
technology. CVD Coated Cermet is a cermet substrate with a thin coating offering high-speed
wear resistance. The coating is applied by CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) technology.
