KYOCERA is known as one of the leading manufacturers of cermets.

Cermets combine toughness with superior wear resistance, and provide longer
tool life and excellent surface finishes.
Typical materials used in cermets are TiC, TiN, TiCN and NbC.
PVD Coated Cermet (MEGACOAT / MEGACOAT NANO Cermet)

PVD Coated Cermet is coated on cermet substrate with a thin layer of high wear
resistance and high adhesion resistance by PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition)
technology. Generally because of the low processing temperature of PVD compared
with CVD, PVD coated cermet features less deterioration and more bending strength.

A PVD / CVD Coated Carbide (Milling / Drilling)

PVD Coated Carbide (MEGACOAT / MEGACOAT NANO)
Insert Grades
PVD coated carbide grades for milling and drilling are coated
on a very tough carbide substrate.
Because of the low processing temperature of PVD
compared with CVD, it features less deterioration and more
bending strength.
CVD Coated Carbide

CVD coated carbide grades provide stable, efficient machining at high
speeds or for heavy interrupted applications.
Ti-base (TiN, TiCN) coating with superior hardness and wear resistance
or ceramic-base (Al2O3) coating with high-thermal stability is applied on a
tough carbide substrate. Superior fracture resistance and wear resistance.
