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). Developed was a brand new system, (INFN-branded), which allows the application of the most innovative physical vapor deposition (PVD) technologies. The State of The Art, PVD machinery uses a combined arc and magnetron source and is one of a kind.
