1. TD Coating Centre (TDCC) is synonymous with delivering high precision, high performance tools and machine parts that increase productivity, reduce downtime and maximise part life. zk achieves this through the right metallurgical combinations, the right selection of base metals, appropriate heat treatment and surface engineering, and high quality part manufacture.
The coatings and surface treatments we are involved with include Thermal Diffusion (TD) coatings, which have been shown to outperform many comparable coatings, a variety of PVD coatings including DLC, and surface treatments such as Controlled Nitriding, Boronisation etc.
Moulds and parts (coated or uncoated) are manufactured from a variety of steels, tool steels, special PM tool steels, carbide or tungsten alloys precision ground (not just machined.) ZK pays attention to the overall design of the part, including the correct tolerances to ensure a first time fit and to maximise the life of the part, and has many years of experience in this area. It's all about getting the highest performance out of the part. zk is the one-stop solution for ultimate performance!
ZK also has its own range of standard parts, such as perforated punches, which increase service life and reduce resharpening. Click here to learn more about our exclusive range of piercing and ball lock punches, dies, guide pins, locating pins and more.
ZK can offer the follow standard type PVD coatings:
Titanium Nitride (TiN)
Titanium Carbo-Nitride (TiCN)
Titanium Aluminium Nitride (TiAlN)
Titanium Aluminium Carbo-Nitride (TiAlCN) “aka Variantic”
Chromium Nitride (CrN)
Aluminium Chromium Nitride (AlCrN – a.k.a. AlCRONA).
Chromium Carbide topcoats (CrC))
Diamond Like Carbon (DLC) – super low friction, high hardness coating is available
YDLC – Multi-layered DLC coating for improved adhesion
The above can also be supplied in duplex format for applications requiring higher surface loading and improved fatigue life.
ZK through measure the parts to determine that the parts meet the tolerance range required, and then deliver them to customers by sea/land/air and other means of transportation according to the different packaging methods required by different customers.
