TECHNOLOGY OVERVIEW

More About PVD Coating

What’s PVD Coating?

Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) coating is a surface treatment method where thin layers of materials are deposited onto a substrate in a vacuum environment. Two common techniques used are sputtering and evaporation.

Sputtering involves bombarding a target material with high-energy ions, while evaporation entails heating a solid material until it evaporates and then condenses onto the substrate. Materials like titanium, chromium, and various nitrides are often used.

PVD coatings provide benefits like enhanced hardness, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance. It can also be for decorative purposes because it can improve the appearance of products. Despite its advantages, PVD coating is an intricate and sometimes costly process requiring specialized equipment and controlled conditions.
