This paper summarizes the development of an improved Titanium Nitride (TiN) recoating process at Multi-Arc Incorporated which triples the life of recoated hobs and shaper cutters. This new coating process, which is called Super TiN, surpasses the performance of standard TiN recoating for machining gear components. Super TiN incorporates stripping, surface preparation, smooth coating techniques and polishing before and after recoating. The combination of these improvements to the recoating process are the key to its performance.
