Since 2010, the benchmark for your company in the world of PVD in Italy, Europe, and Worldwide.
Acronym for Physical Vapor Deposition – an environmentally friendly high vacuum coating technology based on the deposition of thin films on different types of materials in the presence of plasma. During the process, metals such as titanium, zirconium, and chromium are vaporized and condensed onto the surface, combining with process gas to create the desired coating.
An acronym for Plasma Enhanced Chemical Deposition – another environmentally friendly technology for thin film deposition in high vacuum. In PECVD, the coating material is contained in gas or vapor molecules (precursors); these are dissociated by plasma and the material becomes available for deposition. A classic coating is DLC, Diamond Like Carbon.
The HiPIMS sputtering technique is based on the use of very high power pulses that generate a high current density plasma. This promotes higher ionisation of the coating material and allows for more uniform deposits. The process uses short energy pulses for more precise control of the thin film properties.

The Compact Arc PVD Coating System IP860 was designed for high performance decorative coatings, with improved process for plastic parts but keeping high quality standards for metallic parts also. The unit is equipped with 4 arc sources.
Advantages:
The Compact PVD Coating System IP1170 HY is designed to produce decorative PVD coatings, with improved process for plastic parts but keeping high quality standards for metallic parts. The machine has front door access for load/unloading the turntable.
This technology offers significant advantages in various sectors where precision and material deposition are of fundamental importance.
Advantages:
PVD coatings adhere very well to the substrate and provide excellent surface hardness, enhancing wear and abrasion resistance.
PVD is eco-friendly, as it doesn't involve harsh chemicals or toxic baths (unlike electroplating), which reduces environmental impact and disposal costs.
PVD can be applied to a wide range of materials (metals, ceramics, heat-treated plastics) and offers various aesthetic finishes (colors, matte/glossy, metallic effects).
PVD coatings offer good corrosion resistance and maintain their properties even at high temperatures, making them suitable for cutting tools, industrial parts, and decorative applications.
Titanium PVD coatings offer excellent wear-resistance and long-term durability thanks to their high hardness and robustness. They are ideal for applications demanding both protection and a premium metallic finish.
Chromium PVD coatings provide a bright, decorative metallic look combined with enhanced corrosion and oxidation resistance. Their smooth finish and strong adhesion suit high-load or high-wear environments.
Zirconium PVD coatings deliver superb corrosion resistance and compatibility with sensitive substrates, while offering refined decorative tones for premium components. They are especially suited where biocompatibility or high-end finishes are required.
