Technical PVD for the North American Market

Technical PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) is a process in which solid materials—such as titanium, chromium, or other hard metals—are vaporized in a vacuum environment and deposited as thin coatings on various surfaces. This technology enhances surface hardness, wear resistance, and performance in extreme conditions.

FOCUS: FEATURES

Fields of Application

Technical PVD is widely used across industrial sectors, including mechanics, aerospace, automotive, medical, electronics, and tooling.

Characteristics

This coating technique produces ultra-thin layers with exceptional properties, such as:

  • High hardness and wear resistance
  • Low friction
  • Excellent performance in high-temperature or corrosive environments

Environmental Impact

Technical PVD is an eco-sustainable solution that avoids the use of toxic solvents and the production of hazardous waste. Compared to traditional treatments like hard chrome plating, it significantly reduces both environmental impact and energy consumption.

FOCUS: PROCESSES

Technical PVD coatings are widely applied in industries such as mechanics, aerospace, and tooling. They form thin, durable layers that enhance the functional properties of treated surfaces, increasing their reliability and lifespan.

FOCUS: ADVANTAGES

Technical PVD provides numerous benefits, making it ideal for both functional and aesthetic applications:

Performance Improvement:

Treated tools and components last longer, with increased resistance to wear and overheating.

Operational Efficiency:

Reduced friction improves productivity and decreases energy consumption in machinery.

Precision and Adaptability:

The coating can be applied to complex surfaces without altering dimensions or tolerances.

Cost Reduction:

Extended component lifespan reduces maintenance, repair, and replacement costs.

Eco-compatibility:

Replaces polluting chemical treatments, promoting environmental sustainability.
