For higher hardness, higher speed and longer tool life!
In comparison with the conventional coating single-phase nano
crystal coating technology offers higher coating hardness and FEATURES OF IMPACT MIRACLE COATING
heat resistance.
When machining hardened steels it can be seen that the Shingle phase nano coating (Al,Ti,Si)N (Al,Ti)N
IMPACT MIRACLE coating offers a lower friction of coefficient (Al,Ti,Si)N
and as such prevents abnormal damage such as chipping.

MIRACLE Coating (Al,Ti)N Oxidation Behavior Concept Chart of
(Al,Ti)N Coating Layer
MIRACLE coating for high speed milling. Coated cutting tool
Miracle coating is produced by adding Al to an existing TiN coating. High temperature zone of the
blade tip 800 ─1,000r (Al,Ti)N coating layer
This coating layer consists of a compound solid solution of (AlTi)N.
This coating has succeeded in improving heat resistance during cutting in addition
to adding high hardness properties to the tool. Work
The result is improved performance for dry, high speed cutting of hardened material
materials.

Diamond Coating
Diamond coating for non-ferrous and new non-metal materials.
Owing to Mitsubishi’s unique plasma chemical vapor deposition (CVD) coating technology, great combination of coating hardness
similar to that of natural diamond has been combined with a good adhesion to carbide substrates.

(Al,Ti)N coating at the low temperatures required for Adhesion (N) 80 60
HSS substrates, means that Violet coating has the
same level of adhesion strength as Miracle coating. Oxidation Temperature (r) 840 620
Additionally high film hardness and excellent oxidation
resistance properties have also been realised.
