VTC AND HITACHI'S NEW TH COATING PERMITS
HIGH-SPEED DIRECT MILLING OF HARDENED STEELS.

Schaumburg, IL - Vega Tool Corporation's (VTC) Hitachi tooling has again set the standard for coating technology with Hitachi's new TH formula. Consisting of a nano-composite material (for hardness and resistance to oxidation), TH coating allows for the high-speed direct milling of hardened steels. In fact machining efficiency is double that of tooling using conventional coatings.

Hitachi's TH coating also increases tool life, while improving the finish quality of prehardened (35HRC) and hardened steels (45-60 HRC).

Because the TH generates less heat when machining, it is suitable for dry cutting. Along with carbide tooling, VTC's Hitachi line includes indexable insertable tooling. Indexable insertable tooling is designed for the high-feed machining of hardened materials. This line removes up to three times more cubic inches of metal per minute than competitor tooling.

Hitachi tooling is best suited for automotive, mold & die, aerospace, medical and oil patch industries.
