Physical Vapor Deposition coating provides a high-performance surface treatment for industrial tools used in forming, cutting, punching, and manufacturing applications.
Alpha coating helps delay sharpening, reduce galvanized buildup, limit punch chipping, and support longer tool performance in demanding forming operations.
CrN coating supports durable production performance and can help reduce heat and maintenance concerns in selected industrial tooling applications.
Anti-galling coatings help industrial tools operate with less friction, reduced lubricant demand, and fewer maintenance interruptions. Surface Solutions applies high-performance PVD solutions for metal forming, punching, sheet metal forming, cutting, and manufacturing applications. Depending on the tool and production objective, coating selection may help improve part output, reduce sharpening frequency, and support more productive operations across demanding industrial environments.

"Surface Solutions helped me with a small, but very significant project. They CrN coated some titanium pieces for me. They went above and beyond to make it amazing. Chet and Mike are pros and I would highly recommend their service."
"Nearly everything we resharpen gets sent out to Surface Solutions for coatings. I had one customer that wasn't using coatings and now that he's tried it, he wants everything coated. His tools are working better than new. It's like night and day . . ."
"The Alpha™ coating that was utilized last time for these small parts worked great. I was very pleased with the result as it greatly increased the part life. I was able to make 500 passes using the scratch testing equipment and saw no visible degradation of the coating under our..."
"Alpha cutters are amazing! And I hear AlTiN can only get better… Either way, we are going to ship you a huge set to get processed asap… Thank you so much! Kirk is thinking that these cutters just eliminated an entire process to the current one we have to do!!!..."

Anti-galling describes a surface treatment or coating intended to reduce adhesive wear, friction, and material transfer when metal surfaces slide or contact under pressure. In industrial tooling, anti-galling coatings can help limit buildup, reduce lubricant requirements, support smoother production, and extend useful tool life. The right coating depends on the tool, material, application, and desired production outcome.
