Tools<\/h3><\/div>
\"Frese<\/span><\/div>

Lafer creates coatings for gear teeth, tools, and inserts using arc technology and Magnetron Sputtering and HiPIMS<\/strong>, offering the best solutions for reducing friction and operating temperatures, as well as for increasing cutting parameters.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/span><\/a><\/span>

Molds<\/h3><\/div>
<\/span><\/div>

Lafer coatings are applied to protect the molding surfaces from wear and abrasion<\/strong>, facilitate the sliding<\/strong> of the mold’s moving parts, and prevent sticking phenomena<\/strong> of the molded material.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/span><\/a><\/span>

Components<\/h3><\/div>
<\/span><\/div>

For the components department, Lafer has developed a range of coatings and treatments dedicated to reducing friction and increasing surface hardness.<\/strong> Consequently, the treated material shows a general increase in wear and corrosion resistance and an extended component lifespan.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
