HIGH PERFORMANCE COATING USING PHYSICAL VAPOR DEPOSITION TECHNOLOGY (PVD)
This was a result of a partnership started years ago with the Laboratories of Legnaro (Material Science and Technologies Service at Legnaro National Laboratories | National Institute of Nuclear Physics). A INFN-branded new system was developed, which allows the application of the most innovative physical vapor deposition (PVD) technologies.
PROCESS: Ultra thin hard coatings, mainly nitrides, carbides and carbonitrades. The combination of the arc technology and magnetron sputtering allows to obtain high performing coatings, thanks to a tailored PVD machine designed and manufactured in collaboration with INFN (National Institute of Nuclear Physic).
MAIN APPLICATION: Anti-wear, anti-corrosion, anti-bonding and low friction solutions.
MAIN PRODUCTS: Rolls for the wire sector, rolls for metal sheets forming, cutting tools, inserts, molds, mechanical components and more.
Once the coating has worn off, the roll begins its service life with the base material.

CAPACITY:
- Max Cylinder diameter: 600 mm
- Max Length: 700 mm
- Max Weight: 800 kg
HIGHLIGHTS:
- Applied on finished products (no need for grinding or polishing)
- Low cost
- The useful life of the roll is estimated to increase by about 40%
