Abstract
(Cr1−xAlx)N/MoySz coatings promise a solution for replacement of lubricants on highly forced tools in dry cold forging. Wear resistant (Cr1−xAlx)N together with the self‐lubricating MoySz deposited using PVD technology offers an extension of tool life without lubricants. This combination is insufficiently researched and its capabilities are yet unknown. In this contribution, (Cr1−xAlx)N/MoySz coatings are deposited by means of PVD in an industrial‐scale unit. Decreasing the Cr and Al content by increasing Mo and S content, influences the coating properties considerably. It is found that hardness and indentation modulus decrease. However, an increase of the deposition rate is observed. A reduction of the friction coefficient with the increase of MoySz content is detected.
