In order to increase the service life of tools which are coated with a material of the genus MeX, in which Me is a metal or mixed metal and X is a metalloid from group C, O, N, B, it is proposed to incorporate a CrX intermediate layer, in which Cr is an essential part of the shift. Known adhesion test methods tend to result in a deterioration in the coating adhesion. Nevertheless, the tool life is increased. |
