What are the advantages of the TRD process?
The TRD process is the world patented technology developed at Toyota Central Research and Development Labs by Dr. Toru Arai. The TRD process makes it possible to easily obtain a “Pure Carbide Layer”. This is a fine but thicker layer compared to other coatings. It also adheres more strongly to the substrate material. This layer causes the die to have a longer life especially under severe conditions.
