Focus on PVD 2.0®

The new era of PVD coating: MK34" - PVD 2.0®

Introducing the new era of PVD coating with the Kolzer® MK34” machine and PVD 2.0® technology. This operator-friendly solution offers faster production times and highly dense and compact decorative and functional coatings. With Kolzer’s sustainable technology and low production costs, you can expect ultimate aesthetical and technical performance.

Kolzer is your all-in-one partner, providing quality, 70 years of manufacturing expertise, and 24/7 technical support.

But what is PVD 2.0® technology? It builds upon traditional PVD characteristics and adds new, important, and durable mechanical and chemical performances that are compatible with all materials, even those without pretreatment. Using a sputtering process, high-power magnetrons and gases it energizes molecules to create a dense, compact, and highly resistant coating with perfect adhesion that meets even the hardest OEM standards.

CONFIGURATION OF KOLZER MK34” PVD 2.0®

ULTRA WEAR

TECHNICAL

The Ultra Wear machine produces morphologically defect-free coatings that ensure perfect adhesion to surfaces, resulting in extremely smooth and dense coatings at the atomic level. It’s perfect for tools, technical components, fuel cells, and electronic devices, even with complex shaped substrates

ULTRA POWER

DESIGN

The Ultra Power machine is tailored to meet the needs of the taps and handles sector, where a wide range of color options and deco-functional properties are required. The machine can coat diecast and stainless-steel materials with PVD 2.0®, creating durable and aesthetic finishes that resist corrosion, abrasion, and tarnishing.

ULTRA DECO

LUXURY

Finally, the Ultra Deco configuration offers high-speed processes with excellent quality, generating a specific solution for the fashion and luxury industry to provide added value through sustainable processes. It guarantees low energy consumption, fast color change, and better aesthetic and mechanical performance on metal and plastic components.

APPLICATION FIELDS

KOLZER MK®
High automation for large volumes

The ideal solution for your production line.

The MK34″ is available in three load capacity variants, designed to suit different requirements.

The smallest, ideal for small objects, limited productions or precious metal deposits. The mid-size variant, perfect for standard PVD productions on 3D objects. Finally, the largest version that can reach up to 1500 mm in useful coating height, suitable for large sizes and large productions.

MK34″ is the ideal machine that guarantees reliability and efficiency in all conditions of use.
