Main applications

Kronos Lafer is deposited using state-of-the-art arc technology and is suitable for both dry and wet machining processes, with high cutting parameters and thick chip formations. In its mold version, Kronos is Lafer’s solution for die-casting aluminum, zama, and magnesium.

Its composition is ideal for combating metallization and allows combining the high wear resistance, typical of chrome-containing coatings, with the high-temperature resistance, typical of aluminum-containing coatings.
