Abstract: A deposition apparatus for cutting tools with a coating film capable of depositing the coating film in an appropriate temperature condition is provided. The deposition apparatus includes: a deposition chamber in which a coating film is formed on the cutting tools; a pre-treatment chamber and post-treatment chamber, each of which is connected to the deposition chamber through a vacuum valve; and a conveying line that conveys the cutting tools from the pre-treatment chamber to the post-treatment chamber going through the deposition chamber, the in-line deposition apparatus using a conveyed carrier on which rods supporting cutting tools are provided in a standing state along a conveying direction. The deposition chamber includes: a deposition region; a conveying apparatus; a heating region; and a carrier-waiting region.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a tungsten carbide base cutting tools formed on sintered hard alloy substrate material. Multiple hard coatings are deposited on the Co-enriched surface layers of the substrate material, and a maximum value of the Co concentration in a layer occurs within a distance of 50 .mu.m of the external surface of the substrate material, and this surface layer region is referred to as the denuded zone because the surface region is substantially free of carbides, carbonitrides and nitrides of Ti, Ta, and Nb containing W. The multilayer coating consists of a primary coating of TiCN, a secondary coating of Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 and the surface coating consisting of at least one of TiCN and TiN. The interface between the substrate material and the primary coating is provided with a first intermediate coating consisting of TiN. The interface between the primary coating and the secondary coating is provided with a second intermediate coating consisting of at least one layer of TiC, TiCO and TiCNO.
