The application of PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) coatings is a modern method for applying thin layers of material to various surfaces. This technology is widely used in industry to improve the surface properties of tools, machine parts and other components. PVD coatings provide improved resistance to wear, corrosion, high temperatures and other adverse effects. PVD technology makes it possible to deposit layers of very hard materials such as nitrides, oxides and metal carbides.

PVD coatings = sustainability:

  • Higher quality of the final product, lower scrap rate.
  • Substitution of more expensive less productive thechnologies.
  • Volume reduction or elimination of cutting and cooling fluids.
  • Reduction of the energy intensity of processes.
  • Higher tool reliability, lower maintenance costs.

PVD technology = ecology:

  • Eco-friendly.
  • Without chemicals.
  • No emissions are produced.
  • Heat recovery of the cooling system.
  • The product is inert and very stable coatings based on ceramics (metal nitrides and carbides).
