During the PVD vacuum coating process, pressure fluctuations in the coater chamber can lead to uneven coating and poor repeatability. A mass flow controller controls the reaction gas and a pressure controller controls the pressure of the inert gas in the chamber to improve the final plasma vapour deposition (PVD) results.

Specialised physical vapour deposition (PVD) coatings are widely recognised for the key role they play in improving operational performance and extending the life of parts in manufacturing and industry. Read More

Vacuum coating machine in the process of daily use, must be irregular maintenance maintenance, only reasonable maintenance and maintenance, in order to make the vacuum coating machine work, higher efficiency, longer service life, the probability of emergencies is lower, so as to achieve the role of cost reduction.

PVD, like water plating, both belong to the category of surface treatment, and both are used to make one material cover the surface of another material in a certain way to obtain a layer or multiple layers of film with decorative effect or with certain functions (wear resistance, corrosion resistance, heat resistance, electrical conductivity, etc.).

With the development of technology, PVD technology is constantly evolving and many specialised technologies have emerged for certain applications, here is an overview of the various PVD technologies. Read More

Vacuum coating technology did not take long to start and it was only in the 1960s that CVD (Chemical Vapour Deposition) technology was applied to cemented carbide tools internationally. As the technology needs to be carried out at high temperatures, the coating type is single and the limitations are great, therefore, its development is not poor at the beginning. PVD coating technology, on the other hand, has two characteristics: low temperature and high energy, and can be applied to almost any substrate, so it is not surprising that the range of applications is very wide. The development of vacuum coating technology has also seen the emergence of new technologies such as PCVD (physical chemical vapour deposition) and MT-CVD (medium temperature chemical vapour deposition), and a variety of coating equipment and coating processes have emerged, and there is now a pleasing scene of a hundred flowers blossoming in this field.

There are four factors affecting the quality of cleaning, respectively: cleaning time, chemicals, mechanical action and cleaning fluid temperature, the four factors also affect each other, a weakening of factors, can be enhanced through the role of the other three factors to compensate, and vice versa. In these four factors, the cleaning time of the smaller is also the pursuit of the goal, so as to improve the efficiency of cleaning. Shorten the production time and delivery cycle. Read More

The tool is one of the most active elements of the cutting system. With the development of technology, the feed and cutting speeds of coated tools have been increased, while their service life has also been extended. Therefore, in today's rapidly developing machining technology, the performance of tools has gained importance, with coating technology being a key technology in tool manufacture. Read More

PVD coating technology, suitable for injection moulding, hardware, die-casting moulds, parts and cutting tools, has anti-wear and high temperature resistance characteristics, the service life can be increased by 2-10 times, can significantly improve production efficiency and reduce production costs. At present, there are still many mould companies who lack understanding of this technology. Read More

The homogeneity of the thickness of the coated film on a magnetron sputtering vacuum coating machine is a very important indicator of the film-forming properties, so it is very necessary to study the homogeneity of the coated film on a magnetron sputtering vacuum coating machine. Here enijor gives you more details. Read More

PVD is a surface treatment process in which metallic or non-metallic materials such as titanium, graphite, gold, crystals and gases are formed on a substrate by sputtering, evaporation or ion plating. PVD has many advantages over traditional chemical plating methods: for example, it is a green and environmentally friendly process; it is not harmful to the operator; and the film is strong, dense, corrosion resistant and of uniform thickness.

PVD processes can generally be divided into three types, namely vacuum vapour deposition, sputter coating and ion plating. The main barriers in the pvd coating materials industry are: technical barriers, financial barriers, talent barriers, and brand barriers Read More

PVD vacuum coating will greatly improve the hardness and adhesion of medical devices. The biocompatibility of the coating is a prerequisite for its use on medical devices. Read More

With the development of economy and the improvement of living standard, people like to decorate watch cases, watch straps, clothing, lighting, glasses frames, indoor and outdoor decorative parts, hardware luggage, mobile phone cases, mobile phone video screens sanitary ware, food packaging and other decorative items finely decorated with colorful. Here, Yingliyue introduces you to the main applications of pvd vacuum coating technology! Read More

The application of PVD coating technology is divided into two main categories: decorative coating and tool coating. The purpose of decorative coating is to improve the appearance and colour of the workpiece, and to make the workpiece more wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant to extend its service life. The purpose of tool plating is to improve the surface hardness and wear resistance of the workpiece, reduce the friction coefficient of the surface and improve the service life of the workpiece; this is mainly used in various knives and scissors, turning tools (such as turning tools, planing tools, milling tools, drills, etc.), various hardware tools (such as screwdrivers, pliers, etc.), various moulds and other products.
