Funded Activity Summary

Designing the Next Generation of High Performance Cutting Tools. In order for Australian manufacturers to improve their global competitiveness in the production of manufactured goods it is essential to have access to cost effective high performance cutting tools. This project seeks to meet this challenge by exploiting new pathways in the development of advanced metallic-based vapour deposited coatings. This new approach will provide a much needed opportunity for value adding in the economically significant area of tribological coatings for industrial components. The outcomes of this project will directly impact on the ability of Sutton Tools, an Australian owned company, to sustain and expand its export markets while adding more broadly to the competitiveness of Australia's manufacturing industry.
