Extract

TiAIN is a protective coating for cutting and reshaping tools, since it reduces wear, increases the cutting velocity of cutting tools, and increases the lifetime of reshaping tools. Thus many investigators studied the structure and properties of thin TiN films1-6. Due to the complicated geometry of the tools, the coating thickness may vary at different locations on a tool. For quality assurance thickness measurements are necessary. In this work-as a first step-only a simple geometry was considered.
