Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a method for depositing a diamond coating on a workpiece, for instance a drawing die or a tool punch, whereby a reactive plasma supported coating method is used. According to the invention the generation of the plasma is made by a direct current discharge, whereby additionally a flow of charged particles is fed into the discharge gap; according to the invention the workpiece to be coated is positioned in the discharge gap. Due to the inventive design a relatively long discharge gap can be used, such that also large surface areas can be coated; the coating is made at a location of the highest homogeneity and density of the plasma. By means of the invention a method is provided which can be controlled regarding financial expenses and in a reliable manner and which is suitable for large surface area coating.
