OPTIMIZATION OF
PVD PROCESSES
FOR DECORATIVE AND FUNCTIONAL COATINGS
Intelligent surfaces that look good
and have smart properties -
a growth market of the future.
PVD TECHNOLOGY MAKES INNOVATIVE COATINGS POSSIBLE THAT MEET THE EXPECTATIONS OF MODERN CUSTOMERS
In the last two and a half decades, various methods and technologies have emerged that make it possible to colorize products decoratively, in particular through the development of vacuum coating processes.
Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD), one of the most frequently used industrial vacuum coating processes, has become much more attractive in recent years.
PVD coatings are resistant to both corrosion and wear with very attractive decorative properties.

PVD TECHNOLOGY OFFERS AN ATTRACTIVE COMBINATION OF PROPERTIES FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF FUNCTIONAL AND ATTRACTIVE PRODUCTS
PVD decorative coatings meet the strictest requirements for innovative products such as
-
attractive colour
-
high hardness
-
colour stability over time
-
resistance to corrosion and wear.
Among all the possibilities of PVD coating, magnetron sputter technology is gaining central importance for the deposition of coatings. Since the PVD technology enables a functional coating at temperatures below 180 ° C, it offers a great advantage over other technologies. This makes it a very attractive solution for coating heat-sensitive parts such as plastics, clock elements with springs, bathroom fittings, door handles and automotive components.
